All have thick and tall bodies. Whats their diet?

 

[I C Mud]

Anything they want! LOL Just kidding. Extreme pellets, extreme flake, Mysis, brine, shrimp, bloodworms , prawn, cucumber, lettuce, zucchini, peas, veggie and algae wafers. If the fish gods are smiling they get yellowtail acei fry.

lmao! Probably looks better in the picture than it actually is. The small loaches put on 2-3 inches and the larger loaches put on 1-2". I think the key was lots and lots of water changes. For the first 6 months of being in the 300g tank (upgrade from a 180g I changed their water at the rate of 30% every 3 days. Also added some power heads. Now it's 30% every week, I will see if there is indeed a change in growth rate from this point.
