What kind of Cichlid pellet do you use?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I like dainichi color fx. Everyone else is gonna jump in and talk about NLS, too, but I don't like the baby pellets and I cannot seem to find any larger.
 
see I have the 2mm and my big fish just ain't interested. What's the dealio?
 
Hikari Excel and Gold pellets (both floating and sinking).
I also use the NLS small cichlid pellets for my Vics and smaller Haps.

And once a week, I treat with brine shrimp.

i bet if you just kept feeding those small pellets they'll become interested soon enough. I've had the same experience with large haps not eating the 2mm pellets, thought they were blind when pellets would rain on there head and they just ignore them. They came around, but i also went and brought the 3mm sinking pellets and 4.5 floating pellets,
