NLS cichlid or community?

[hvuong]

I have a community tank with tetras, german blue rams, loaches, shrimp and siamese algae eaters. I'm mainly focused on the GBR's and tetras in this article. Since tetras are community and GBR's are cichlids what should i feed them, the NLS community or cichlid pellets?

Why not both and alternate?

I feed my fish everything. Cichlid & community pellets, cichlid & community flakes, frozen mysis, bloodworms, brine shrimp. Seems to be the best bet to diversify the food source.

i think ill go buy some nls community too since i have the cichlid one already. I want to pick one more type of food, preferably live but doesnt have to, what would be a good choice?

[lauraleellbp]

Frozen foods. I like the freshwater mix from San Francisco Bay.

Frozen brine, frozen bloodworms, and live Blackworms are always a good choice.As said before you fish will love you for itand it will get those GBRs conditioned to spawn.

I am a huge promoter of live daphnia. I absoulutely love these little things. They get your fish nice and coloured up, and you can gut load them too with different foods before you feed them to your fish. They will also encourage breeding.
Another thing about them is that you can plop a bunch in your tank and they won´t fowl the water. They´ll just hang around untill they either get eaten or sucked up into the filter. Also, they are the easiest things to take care of and raise. You acn kjeep them in a kiddie pool i fyou want out on your belcony throughout the summer and then just put them in a bucket and keep them in your room during the winter.
