I'm currently feeding my lungfish Hakari Algae waffers and Hakari Carnivous Massivors . I also mix it up with other things like ghost shrimps , Zoomed earthworm flakes and Omega Cichlid Flakes . I'm looking for opinions of other pellet brands you might recommend ?
Thanks in advance .

My previous West African lungfish (which is what you have) greatly enjoyed any and all pellets that were of the sinking variety (shrimp pellets, algae wafers, etc.); it wasn't a big fan of floating pellets (Hikari Food Sticks). It also really liked eating pieces of white fish fillets (tilapia, whiting, etc.), market shrimp, and a homemade food mix consisting of pellets, fish fillets, and unflavored gelatin (binds it all together). I also gave it beefheart as an occasional treat.

I would keep feeding it the Hikari Massivore as the main staple (give at almost every feeding) and give it the Hikari Algae Wafers at every other feeding (helps to control lateral line erosion). White fish fillets and/or market shrimp can be added to its diet and can be given in the place of the Massivore at some feedings. I would also keep giving the live ghost shrimps as an occasional treat since they'll help to enrich it's otherwise sedentary life. I would ditch both kinds of flakes since you'll end up wasting more of them than what the lungfish will eat plus they're not as good for it as the other foods.
