Hey guys. If you read my last thread you know that I was getting a pleco. Well, last Saturday i drove across town a purchased a small, striped bristle nose (I think, it could be spotted too). Anyway, he has been a great help around my tank and I've already grown attached to him, but feeding him has grown rather difficult. Whenever a place an algae wafer in front of him he starts eating, but then my balloon belly Molly swims by and takes it. He gets scared and hides under the decorations instead of trying to get it back. I started feeding the other fish when I was feeding him, but they eat faster and then take his food! What should I do? I want to make sure that he is actually getting a decent meal each day but he isn't big enough to defend himself.
