Welcome to LOL Tanja!
Could you tell me what I should be feeding this tiny fish?
I think you´re doing a good job there. I would say stop woring about that.
As you said, other ones are growing up despite you can´t see them feeding. So, just keep going! :lol:

If I were in your place, I'd consider taking them with Ich and deal with the disease yourself I would, if I had a QT. I don´t dare jeopardize my whole tank with them as I had an Ich isue here a few months ago and it was very hard to clean them all. Anyway, I´m calling guys from the shop almost ever...

Nice kubs Milkev!

Can´t wait for my kubs! :roll:
I have ordered 5 a couple weeks ago. They were put on a QT at the fish shop I use to go but 2 of them didn´t make it. Other 3 one got ich. They are trying to heal them for me. If lucky I will have those 3 in a week or so.
