Cool guys! :D

Well everyone seems to be doing fine in the 55gal. The only one snag I hit was 4days after i got everyone settled in one one the Petricola's got caught on th esid eof my filter box and died. So now I'm down to only 2 of the little critters. I'm hoping to maybe pickup another in the near future, around the same size. These guys are only 1.5inches. As for my veil tail BN. He seems to be doing pretty good. All the algae on the live plants are gone and now I'm trying to figure out what to feed him. I know th ePetricola's love the sinking tablets from Tetra, but don't know if the BN does. Do they usually eat Spirulina tablets?

Also,in my 29 I have a fully grown feather-fin and my 3inche yellow. I'm planning on adding some extras into the tank cause the feather-fin seems to thrive on chasing the yellow around the tank. :P What can I do to aliviate the problem? Thanks again guys!

I've written a feeding article, which you can find by clicking on the "articles(1)" at the bottom margin of this post. It tells you what you can feed to different types of fish. Ancistrus are Herbivores with an omnivore taste - so mostly veggies and a little bit of meatier food.
