The title says it all. I don't feel like buying two different plant foods for my jack and bichir, but I will if I must. I'm trying to get some more veggie matter in them, and I may get a sun catfish this weekend.

I am not sure what the best is but my cichlids and catfish like Omega One Veggie Rounds.

I would simply feed NLS to both of them and be done with it.

Yes, if you want a complete pellet food with veges and enough protein for your bichir then IMO it would be the one to feed.

bichirs don't exactly need a staple diet of vegetation. I occasionally feed by bichirs some Hikiri algae wafers which they don'y really like.

it isn't going to be a staple diet, I just want to add some veggie matter into their diet

I know it isn't a staple diet, it is just they haven't had a single veggie anything since I got them in December/March
