    Default best pellet foods

    so for quite sometime ive been feeding my 3 bichirs, 2 black ghost knives, clown knife and crayfish (yeah i know its an odd one to have in the mix but at ~6" it holds it own just fine) a diet of hikari massivore, fresh shrimp, frozen bloodworms, earthworms and smelt. im looking to expand their pellet selection as they seem to be developing a bit of distaste for the hikari pellets due to it being their main food, i was looking at NLS lineup but am unsure of what product to go with to suit the feeding needs of my fish. If anyone has some expeirience with these fish and NLS products. which would you recommend and why?

    My bichirs likes Hikari product more than NLS when I used to feed them pellets. BTW remove the frozen bloodworms as it only makes them to ignore pellets. I feed mine with Hikari Sturgeon food as a 4.4 LBS cost the same price at 2.2 LBS of Hikari Massivore. High in fat but that just another good thing to feed them just a few days a week. Save you the money and does not foul the water fast.

    I recommend NLS Thera + A out of all NLS products. I have had the most success with it.

    I also recommend shrimp pellets, my Bichirs love them!
