hey guys, got some midas fries about 1 inch and half an inch, i give them sinking pellets, but seem tht they're just spitting it out. i also give them some chopped off earthworms but they just bite them a bit and leaves it. lol what other food tht i can give them? and also what are their growth rates? what are the prices of them depending on the size?

I use flakes. Just crumble them up.

I use golden pearls from Kensfish.com - very finely ground for fry.

Tetra makes these granules formerly known as "Color Bits"...think they're call "Tropical Granules" now. I used to crush pellets but these saved me a lot of time. At 1 inch, I think yours can handle them.

lol i think it's easier by giving them cruched pellets.
btw, most of the time they stay at the bottom and tht's why it's very difficult to give them floating food.
