I feed them a mix of gold/staple something like 1/3 gold. Treat's=Crickets, earthworms, blood worms, convict fry, raw shrimp, HBH supersoft, FD Krill, Frozen peas, and occasionally an algae wafer or two...

I have a 6in lutino and a 8in albino red. Can I give them pinky mice, or will it clog up theit digestive systems with the bones?

I wouldn't, just stick with pellets, Meat and veggies.

well my oscar and his tankmates are still babies-i feed them NLS pellets, flake, krill, spirulina (hey, he loves it). ive tried zucchini and yellow squash but they werent interested. Bloodworms, brine shrimp.

im going to try cutting up some tiny bits of shrimp and see if he likes that tonite.
