What do you feed your Andinoacara?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I feed my riv NLS thera+a pellets almost exclusively because the stubborn b*tch won't eat anything else.
She has beautiful colours though and I assume that's in part to having a good diet for most of her life.

She's a very pretty fish, here's a pic from a while back (I'm not a great photographer):

Seriously the prettiest silver I’ve seen. She’s got better color then a lot of males too.

Op- I feed mine a mix pellet from aquatic foods. I get the 17 blend. It has a nice mix of protein and veggies. I also give bloodworms, night crawlers, red wigglers, and shrimp as treats.

Holy hell thats so many different types of food. I'm not sure if a little 2" fish could eat it probably when they are full grown it could fit. But I'm really tempted just to scrap my current tank idea and go for a female silver saum wet pet.

It is a lot, but I like that it gives them variety. Plus I have other fish I’m feeding so it works well for everyone.

They have blends with fewer ingredients too. I just like this one. They must too because they eat it all. Haha

sorry to change subject, but is this a confirmed female?

I ask because it looks very similar to my male
