Store-bought Food

[Exnetics]

I have bichirs, fire eel, and ropefish. What should their diet be? I can get frozen tilapia and shrimps at the store, I also have blood worms. The fire eel is 10 inches, bichirs 5.5 inch, and ropefish 10 inch, how often do I feed them these foods? Is it tilapia one day, then the next day shrimps, next day blood worms, and so on? If so, do I feed twice/once a day or every other day? Lastly, should I just thaw out the tilapia and shrimp and then feed it?

First off, I wouldn't make an entire feeding dedicated to feeding blood worms since they're not very nutritious. Using it as a treat is good though.
The tilapia and shrimp will be good, I reccomend cutting up the tilapia into pieces that are small enough for your needs before freezing it then you can take just what you need.
Feeding them once a day is good although they'll grow a bit faster on twice a day.
As for that last question you should thaw it before feeding.

Thanks! I blended up the tilapia into small pieces and they all ate it without hesitation. Would my water get cloudy?

Well I would think there might be a little but not too much. A light water change would clear it up.

No need for a special water change I never have cloudiness feeding Tilapia maybe some little pieces floating around.
The SD's take care of that lol.
