More of an omnivore, I feed NLS thera-a once, maybe twice a day. I skip a day or two a week.

If you can get few types and mix them all together, I mixed the general grow, color enchancing and veggies (sometime with hex, ich shield into the mix) and feed my fishes. As first they will pick out the food type they love and ate those first but with time they just devour everything that drop in water.

There are a number of cichlids called peacock cichlids, some are piscivores (Cichla from South America) some are omnivores (Aulonacara from the rift lakes of Africa), and I have heard of other dwarf cichlids called peacock cichlids.
Which kind do you mean?
