I need SLOW sinking pellets for my Discus. They are very use to eating Aquadine food but my LFS retired and closed and that product is no longer available here.

I have tried floating and sinking, but they have become very accustom to slow sinking. Apparently floating is beyond their comprehension. Not sure how much they find of the quick sinking before it is eaten by tank mates.

So, I need suggestions for QUALITY, slow sinking sold at the either Petco or Petsmart. (Grrrrrrr).

You could try to see if Amazon sells the food you had. They have some great deals.

Funny how odd Discus can be huh? Some of mine only eat food that floats, & some only eat off the bottom. Mine are still babies though.

Just a suggestion. But try freeze dried Australian blackworms. Stick a chunk in the tank abt 2/3 of the way up the glass. It'll be spongey and able to stick to glass. That way they just locate it and eat away. My discus love it. Hope this helps.
