Thanks for the uplifting comments.

Any tips/links for how to do a video?

These are the foods that I feed in order of quantity:
JMC Catfish Pellets
Tetra Discus granules
Frozen Bloodworm
Freeze-dried Krill (soaked before feeding so they sink)
Various high quality veggie sticks and wafers (from a low volume maker)
NorthFin Kelp Wafers
New Life Spectrum Algaemax
Freeze-dried Tubifex
Freeze-dried Earthworms
Hikari Massivore
Tetramin Flakes (mainly for dithers)

Such a varied nice varied diet! How do you get the freeze dried earthworms to sink?

I cut them to size, put them in hot water and after they have soaked I squeeze the air out of them.

I once bought lots of quality food but I hadn't realised it was floating food. My Loaches then went through a phase when they ate from the surface but they no longer do this because I then made sure to get sinking food.

But they do most of what I want them to.
