I feed mine frozen bloodworms and Omega One veggy rounds and what ever they find in the gravel. They don't eat plants, they are more meat eaters.

i didnt know they liked blood worms cool! but will they eat my baby fish and will they clean up the algae around my tank and maybe a dead fish if i happen to lose one and i cant find it?

Mine liked algae wafers, but only put a small peice in for them or you'll have a mess.
They loved blood worms and were fun to watch them skim across the top after them.
They also ate left over fish flakes and algae.

ill have to try the blood worm thing but i think my other fish will get to them first. so do they clean algae or not im getting mixed answers from different places?

andy65

No not really. There is different kind that do a very good job,but I can't think of their name right now. It starts with a A.

Lucy

Mine did, but just off the plants and decorations, not off the sides of the tank.
I don't think you should rely on algae as their main source of food.

i dont they are fed algae and shrimp pellets with left over food from feeding. the pellets are also for my cory cat and my whiptail cat they all love them! andy65 the shrimp you were thinking of are amano shrimp.
