Veggie Spirulina Flake
What do you feed your African cichlids?
Im feeding hikari cichlid excel mini floating pellets…and delicasea super veggie flakes…which i believe are excellent as they are made from fresh seafood and vegetables..they have spirulina in them too…but do you think i need some frozen food like brine shrimp for extra protein aswell? or is this diet ok? I have Phseudo. esthrae Melanochramis johanni and Electric yellow labs..they are all juvenile…
Mbuna (the type of fish you have) are not carnivores, and to much protein is believed to be a leading cause of Malawi bloat. Bloat is an often fatal disease. The Hikari,and Delicasea should be adequate. Personally I use New Life Spectrum, but it is a matter of preference. NLS provides a good staple food, but should be supplemented with veggies, like you are already doing. I also believe you mean Metriaclima Estherae, red zebras. Those pesky scientists can’t leave those names alone. If you plan on distributing any fry this is a very bad mix. zebras and labs are notorious for cross breeding with each other. A great looking tank with the colors, but syno cats or equivalent may be necessary to remove unwanted fry.
