I'm a guy that likes a lot of variety when I eat. One day steak, one day pasta, maybe then a little Chinese food. So with that said I like to give my fish a different taste. What do you do? Do you give just one type? Or have an array of foods. Plus I also feed frozen bloodworms and frozen brine shrimp. I use feeders (that are 2nd generation) I breed myself and worms esp for my Flowerhorn.

I feed a staple diet of Hikari Jumbo Carnisticks with occasional treats of floating krill or fillets. GATF are hard to get to eat anything other than their staple food though so I'm kind of stuck feeding a staple diet.
 
i like to feed my fish diffrent types of pellets, nls, azoo , hikari (when i can find them) i also feed krill and tilapia and i do feeders every couple of months
 
From what I've read, there is most often no benefit to providing variety insofar as commercial pellets, sticks, etc are concerned. (assuming they is a reputable brand) Again I'm not authority - this is just what I've read - but most of these products contain the same ingredients. The only difference being the consistency: Pellet vs. Flake, and slight variation in the percentages of one nutrient or another.

This does not apply to none staple type foods however, brine/bloodworm/krill and, different veggies are certainly not the same as the pellet/flake types in terms of variety.
 
I vary types of dry food A LITTLE ,but mostly stay with the dry...oh.. I ALSO FEED SOME VEGGIES
