    I was thinking of running a few through the coffee grinder. What kind of fry?

    I grind mine up in a small coffee grinder (until 6 weeks old then I give them whole). I give it a quick pulse and they turn into little bite size pieces for the little guys. They do love it.

    Oddly my RTs are the only fish that really seem keen on FDBWs, so I might as well try some on their fry. Perhaps it's time to buy a second coffee grinder though. My wife's never complained much about me grinding vitamins for my beefheart our coffee grinder, but I'm sure she'd draw the line at fish food.

    Keith, in this regard what she does not know will not hurt her....unless you are concerned about it hurting you.
    Your discus are talking to you....are you listening
