Beautiful fish :thumbsup:

Hey Aquatik, how does the shoe taste?
 
Oscaroo, you are still learning a LOT about this hobby. From your previous threads and posts you know this to be true. You don't know enough about this subject to be giving so much advice. Knowing the ingredients in certain foods is one thing. Knowing how those ingredients affect the physiology of fish is another. That goes for what ever brand you choose.
 
I feed my fish blue printer paper, its much more nutritious than green printer paper.

I about spit my drink out when I read this and got some funny looks from my family haha

Haha. This is so true. My fish will eat, or try to eat ANYTHING.

Mine try and eat anything from another ones pooh to the thermometer when I do my water changes... Obviously if you're feeding your fish one type of food and switch, they're not going to take to it right away. That is where most people fail and allow their fish to train them instead of the other way around.

clock work

Seems to me your fish are not very bright or are Oscars lol.
I never understood the point of keeping marine, you can't even interact with the set up. " I better not put my 100% completely clean disinfected hands I'm my water or my fish might die" " I better not breath I'm my aquarium or my fish might diiiiiiiiieee" get some some real hard core fish buddy! Lol

Marine tanks are a different breed than freshwater. People that keep a salt tank do so for the beautiful colors. Rather it be strictly reef, fish or a mixture... you can not deny the beauty of a well kept marine set up and I've seen a lot of em. Fishkeeping isn't about having the meanest or biggest fish, it's about having what YOU like. Rather it be common fish, rare fish, marine or freshwater... it's personal preference. So please, if you can't add anything useful to this thread... don't type.

Absolutely beautiful fish.
 
What is all this nonsense about feeding fish a variety of different foods

Everyone knows you only gain the magical effects of NLS if you feed ONLY NLS :)

Sarcasm aside I mix a bunch of different brands into one container but I don't feed many pellets any more. I realized that I was looking for the pellets with the best ingredients and trying to decipher labels when it is really easy to make my own food using whole seafood, vitamins, and some form of gelatin or agar to hold it all together. I do mix in some pellets just to be sociable
 
It's kinda funny, if you take away omega ones fancy marketing you have whole salmon meal ect. Which is exactly what I'm looking at on my NLS pellets. Omega and NLS are exactly the same really

I feed my Geophagus (2"-6") 1mm NLS pellets. They don't seem to mind the small size at all :D And variaty is best eh. Go to different fast food chains and eat a different item everyday, yum super healthy!
 
Your Cuban has no color he is just black and white lol! I never said your fish don't have color, where did you hear that?? It was your comment that you can train any fish to eat corn flake- that is not a fact but a assumption, I have had very picky fish that unless you starve them for a week they know exactly what they like, so don't act like you know every thing, cause every one on here can learn something new all the time, that's what makes this hobby so fun!
I am not a fan of marine but agree they are amazing set ups, the fish are much more sensitive like you stated, but this is a CA/SA forum if I recall, so they have no relevance here. A mix of good quality pellets and live or frozen food will ensure your fish thrive to there fullest.
