Hi, thanks for your question.
8am feed:
1 Cube of frozen bloodworm, thawed and rinsed and spread around the aquarium (by myself and partly by the water current).
1 level teaspoon of JMC catfish pellets spread around the aquarium.
20 freeze dried Gammarus shrimp, soaked for 15 mins in hot water and spread around the aquarium.
6pm feed:
1 level teaspoon of Tetra Prima spread around the aquarium.
I do change the diet around occasionally but this is what they get most days.
The fish spend a lot of time searching for their food around the aquarium. This gives them an activity and also shares out the food effectively.
I have always limited the amount of food and never been generous with it. Initially this was to preserve water quality. I have found they actually need very little.
Many thanks,
Steve.
