Everyone says that an ideal diet for Melanochromis auratus is a a mixture of fruits and veggies, but can anyone be specific on exactly what i should be throwing in my tank (Also how i should be preparing these foods.). They are in a tank with two plecos, so i'd like to be able to feed them the same stuff for practicality.

Feed NLS exclusively I have for years they will be fine with NLS as will the plecos. Plecos may have a rough time with these physcos when they get some size on them.
