I started out with ten pygmy corys.....I now have seven and i've never seen the poor things eat....the LFS I got them from said they would eat fish flake but they wouldn't eat that or anything else.
Today I went to my LFS again and chatted to one of the guys there and he suggested live tubifex worms and I thought "Urghhhhhhh" but he promised me they wouldn't change into some weird creepy crawly and for the sake of my corys I thought "Ok, i'll try em".
My corys loved them!!!! They were eating them like spaghetti and my snails soon took over and gobbled em up but i'm so happy my corys ate!
My cana and spixis also loved them. ;D
I've half the worms left and I have to keep them in the bottom of my fridge...yuck...in a sealed container until their next feeding. I'm just so pleased they ate. ;D ;D
