Bigger fish bigger food?

[s010245]

This may be a dumb question but I have 1.5 mm pellets for my cichlids because I started off with all small fish but now I have some bigger ones and they don't seem to be getting as much food as the smaller ones. Should I pick up some bigger pellets for them??

Thanks

I would grab bigger pellets, my oscars didn't eat as much of the little ones then I got bigger pellets and they were eating normally again

And you could try cut up fish and small pieces of shrimp, I just started giving my oscar and jag extra small shrimp. They love it

I upgraded to larger pellets once my fish got big enough. Now I mix a combination of large and smalle pellets. The big guys go right for the big pellets and this allows the smaller guys to get there fill on the smaller pellets.
