Can I get NLS Thera A larger than 3mm pellets??

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
NLS just arrived at my door. I put some in (first time feeding today) and half the fish just spit it out and some won't even try it... 1mm is really small (duh)!! I def should have only bought one 10.6 oz jar... nope, I bought two. I will need to upgrade to the 3mm real soon. I think these guys will be fine and after not eating for a day or two they will take it. I think the new brand mixed with the small size is turning some of them off a bit.
 
What size fish are you feeding them to? 1mm is pretty small for anything over 4 inches, 3mm can work for fish up to 18" though if they're used to small pellets. It really just depends on the size of their mouth and how many you have to feed to meet their weight requirements. If they still won't eat the 1mm after a few weeks you can try making gel food with it

They are all 1" (great for them) to 4" (not so much)... I'm going to order the 3mm soon and feed a mix of the two sizes, thanks.

Most of mine spit it for a few days when I first tried. Nourisatti was the only fish to take it on day 1 besides the Festae in my avatar.

They will come around slowly. Pellet is a bit harder and denser ...
