Anyone with archers??
Let me know what u feed yours? Im new to the archer and am having a little trouble coming up with a good diet for mine.:confused:
 
Gut loaded crickets with a variety of foods would be ideal....

i've never had a problem feeding them flakes or freeze-dried mysis, I had one a couple of years ago that ate pellets (NLS), and was growing fine and healthy until it was killed by a tankmate
 
Sent you a pm. Archers are not very picky and will dive for sinking pellets. Like I said Dainichi growth put serious mass on them and sinking carnivore fills them till they look like they want to explode. And the whole time great color. Flakes has very low nutrtion and not enough protien for my likes. Besides flakes makes a lot of rubbish
 
I feel freeze dried krills, floating cichlid pellets, and raw shrimps. I usually feed pellets first so that would force them to eat since they're hungriest. Then followed by freeze dried krills and finally some raw shrimps. People say they grow slow by my gain in size fast!

Thanks Sinister for your PM to help me out. I got into archers with your help.:)
