feeding a balanced diet for young fish

[TwistedSister]

My first time with discus, I have 10 2.5" white butterflys, feeding them three times a day, and want to be sure they are getting all they need.

I've been giving them PE mysis or bloodworms once, then some Ocean Nutrition Brine Shrimp flakes, and then NLS thera A pellets. They have seem to adapted to flakes and pellets within the first two days of me getting them, like I said, just want to make sure that they are getting everything they need. Is there anything they might be lacking from this diet?

Welcome to SD TwistedSister.
Besides all the above...you will also need to do many-many water-changes. Food is very important but water quality tops the chart. 50% daily would be recommended...the more the merrier.
Good luck with the addiction.

and if u can do all that waterchanging then up the amount of times u are feeding to 6-8. if ur not doing all those waterchanges then stick with the 3 times aday cause bad water will be worse than less food hth
