Ordinarily I feed mainly flake food with live or frozen food every few days.
Since my move to the South West my LFS rarely has anything but bloodworm or shrimp in the live foods (not very Apisto friendly, especially for these youngsters) and last time I visited didn't have any frozen food in stock either! Incredibly poor. All the other FSs in the area are a lot further away, in opposite directions and don't always stock live food either.
Several questions then:
How to get my fish to eat dry foods? One group of the A bitaeniata seem to take the flake food reasonably well but the other group and the A cacas rarely take it. I feed them the same way, although they are in different tanks, if that makes a difference.
How do you keep a culture of say Daphnia? Where do I get a decent starter culture from?
Is there a good on-line supplier for frozen foods? Also, is it still frozen when it arrives or do you have to use it fairly quickly? (Not essential as I can stock up when I am farther afield but annoying).
Sound like really stupid questions to me
