Hikari cichlids gold medium pellet floating type.

Depends, you can try them and if they are hit, good. Or, you can TRAIN them to eat that food. Are your fish young?

Ocean Nutrition makes a lot of great pellets and flake. Sera makes nice granules for discus and Tetra Discus Granules are good too. There are lots of different foods to look into depending on whats convenient for you.

I say make your own food (mix). WAY better! Just like humans, whole foods are best!
