Alright, so I can't speak for everyone, but I know I'm always curious to see what others are feeding their fish. Naturally, rather than ask everyone individually, why not have a thread dedicated for the sole purpose of disclosing this very info? I'd like to keep this organized, so no off topic posts please. Also, if everyone could follow this form, it would keep things neat and clean.

Fish: 3x Widebar Dats, 1x Gold Severum, 1x P.Motoro

Feeding Regimen: Fish are fed three times daily, with a different offering every feeding. The first meal usually occurs at noon and generally consists of shrimp. The second meal happens at around 6PM and comprised of squid. The final meal is at 10PM and is generally earthworms. Every week or so I try and mix things up with blackworms, bloodworms, silversides, and pellets. All ingredients are fresh.

Comments: Things can get messy and weekly water changes of about 40% are a must! The fish are very aggressive eaters, especially towards the squid and earthworms. I feed the dats until they have rounded bellies and the ray until I get tired of throwing food in there. The sev takes what is left.
 
Fish: 2 big senegul, 1 delhezi, 1 ornate, 1 albino senegul, 1 sb senegul, red discus, lima sn, sleeper goby, brown knife, long nose gar.

every day live worms for the discus, every body loves them.
every other day hikari carni pellets for the bichirs mainly (even the discus picks at them)
once a week or more, big feast of shrimp and silversides for all minus discus
