What kind of a diet does your fish have?

I try to have two flake or pellet foods at all times, right now I have Nutrafin Max Large Flake that I feed in the morning and Tetra Cichlid Cichlid Sticks that I feed in the evening. Every week they get fed either frozen Beedfheart, Bloodworms, or freeze dried shrimp. And I get feeders once every 2 months or so… Also have Hikari Cichlid Gold food that I was suggested by someone and the fish just hate it.

Pleco’s don’t get any special food, they eat the algae, food that gets to the bottom, and I put some cucumber or lettuce once in a while.

Let's see:

This is varied between pretty much everyone;
Flakes - TetraMin, Omega One, & flakes from Kensfish.com
Pellets/sticks - Hikari carnivore sticks, New Life Spectrum (Sweet stuff)
Sinking - Omega One shrimp pellets and veggie rounds, Hikari algae wafers
Frozen - Krill, brine, bloodworms, tubifex, mysis
Fry food - Frozen daphnia and baby brine, powdered flakes, rarely green water

The might lungfish and a few other big boys get:
Frozen river shrimp, live trout worms, krill, carnivore pellets, and sometimes I'll throw guppies and ghost shrimp in the lungfish's tank. The ghost shrimp usually do pretty well for quite some time and even breed mainly because the lungfish doesn't want to expend the energy to catch those quick, tiny-ass bugers w/ no meat on them.
