Hello again,

I have more questions!

Well just the one (for now).

Over here in UK Tetra Bits are known as Tetra Prima, but still top discus breeders and good fish owners, feed as a main diet to their fish.

My problem is all my fish eat it except two, my blue diamonds, they just won't eat it, they just don't see it as food. It's like trying to feed it to Wilds. I'm just wondering if anyone has any tips to getting their fish to feed on a certain food (especially Tetra Bits).

Thakns again gang.

Feed only tetra bits every morning for breakfast. Don't feed anything else until at least lunch time. Eventually they will start to pick at it

Tetra Bits are pretty clean - that's why I feed them. Any dried food will eventually foul the water if it's left in the tank long enough.

Hi Ian,
How are your fish doing with the Tetra Bits? I started feeding mine a few days before you. Mine seem to be adjusting to it fine now. I have 7 discus and 5 of them will eat them.. I am finding that I just need to stick to not feeding them the second meal to early so they are forced into having them as the only food to eat.
