Well after a week, I can report I have made these little guys about 15% fatter than they were. I can see their bulging bellies!
So far, they seem very healthy and playful. All 5 play all day chasing eachother. Two of them are a bit smaller than the other 3 at about 1.5" but they are very healthy looking and have plump bellies.
They eat cucumber, salad shrimp, brine shrimp, white mesquito larvae, bloodworms, sinking pellets and least of all they eat the hikari algae wafers. This must have been what they were fed the entire time at the lfs. Next try is going to be squash today.
They really enjoyed the thera +a anti parasitic non medicated sinking pellets. Each pellet is just about bite size for these little guys.
