Flake Food

What do you Feel is the best Flake Food at the lfs.

The fish that I have are below.
Thank Tom​

 

Personally, my main food for all my tanks is spirulina flake food. All my fish eat it except for the copperband and the seahorses; even my cleaner wrasses and my many butterfly fish gulp it down.

 

I do not use any flake food and prefer spectra pellets.
The pellets make it to the bottom feeders better.

 

I prefer O.S.I marine and spirulina flakes.

 

Thank You

 

Your best bet is to mix it up! Go with an algae type formula 2 food and supplement it with a formula 1 food as well to give your fish a variety, just as we eat a variety of foods.
One thing regarding flake foods and pelletized foods-they contain alot of phosphates-more so than frozen foods. Due to this, I would offer mainly frozen food to my livestock. Of course supplement some flake and pellet food as well but be careful not to overfeed(that goes for any food)!

 

Rayjay;
I see you have seahorses of which I recently purchased two myself. I have never had them before so was a little sceptacle but so far they are doing well. I was told they were tank raised and eat frozen food. I have been feeding them mysis shrimp of which I have actually seen one eat, but the other I have not seen eat at all. I have had them for two weeks now so I would think if the one I havn't seen eat, isnt eating it would be dead now??
What are you feeding your seahorses?

 

I don't have seahorses?
