So the question "what's the best food out there?" Seems to come up very often. With no clear answer simply because fish have different needs, weither is because a severum needs more "plant matter" than a dovii, or a juvie needs something different than an adult that needs something different if it's breeding, I've come up with a different sort of question. The following are pics of multiple cichlid specific foods and their ingredients. What food do you think is better for what? Show your own foods you use? Just think it's a good time to compare and share!

I feed both and haven't had any problems. Occasionally I'll throw in some vegetables too, but my midevil loves both of these.
 
my main pellets i use and just mix it up

if they like floating pellets i use these two, also because of the price i give these as their big feeds every couple of days,

i also add one of these as a sinking option (most take these any way)
