I've got some Wardley Algae Wafers and Shrimp Pellets, but the only problem is that the other fish go after them as soon as they finish off the flake.
I also feed them lettuce and cucumbers, but I'm going to stop feeding lettuce (it gets too messy, because the other fish like to bite at it too) and just feed cucumbers from now on. I put in 2 4-inch halves of cucumber a couple days ago, and now it's completely gone, nothing left. The Plecos ate the thing to the bare bone, there's no bone, nothing left.
Anyway, how do they make those algae wafers? Are they like compressed algae or what? And if the other fish eat it all, will the bits and pieces they miss get stuck to the tank somewhere else for the algae-eating fish?
I don't see the Ottos eating much, but maybe they're eating the microscopic algae. I'd like to give them some real algae to eat; I'm sure the other fish won't go after the real algae.
