I do trust you guys I was just trying to inform myself and see all of the options. As soon as I get a chance I will order some NLS and some freeze dried krill, and slowly convert them.
What do you guys feed your cichlids??

I've fed my fish lots of different things. Hykari- gold, sinking gold, bio gold, massivore. NLS- regular, Thera-a, ultra red( I know it seems like a gimmick but I had to try it), omega one large cichlid pellets, oceans nutrition omnivore and veggie flakes, kens cichlid pellets, cobalt large cichlid pellets, earthworm flakes, dainichi color ex, shrimp, krill, and earthworms. When I first got festae I fed them a mix of everything. Now that I got my pair to spawn I feed their fry NLS grow and danichi color ex. Their off spring look way better than their parents did when I got them at 1". I'm a believer in NLS if you can get the fish to eat them. My adult festae won't really touch it, but their fry eat it right up.

If you can't get a fish to eat NLS,
then you should give the 1mm finicky fish formula a shot.
The mussel enticed the appetite of my finicky fish so much that they eventually ate anything NLS.
Plus it has 38% protein.

I recently switched from NLS to Xtreme. My midas go nuts for it and the tank / filters stay way cleaner as compared to NLS. I'm sure I'll ever go back.

Depends on size. My fry eat Thera A and parents eat Mega Formula.

I've fed Hikari, NLS but sense switching to YFS foods I've seen a great difference in my fishes vitality, activity, and overall there appearance! Great ingredient labels, great prices, and made in America! Check them out and give em a try! Always freshly made and fast shipping!

Going to have to agree with the NLS consensus. I raised my central/south Americans on it w/ issue.
My only other substantial contribution is to delay going above the 2mm pellets until your forced to. According to my LFS the smaller pellets are easier to digest, and if carefully and well fed you will have less waste and no issues of aggression from big fish-small bites

NLS is def one of the top three foods out there! I have a success with this food as well but have had even better results in the overall growth of my fish with YFS.
Also the reason a lot of fish won't NLS to start with is because its so nutrient dense, with time and patients they will come around. Sent from my iPad using MonsterAquariaNetwork app
Mixture of Nls Thera a, massavore, freeze dried krill and mysis shrimp. Sometimes freeze dried earthworm
