Aquarium Advice Apprentice
I've just become the proud parent of a little school of 5 serpae tetras, all about 1" long. (My first tropicals!) They reside in a 10g tank set up and cycled just for them, nothing else. My concern is that most of the food I bought for them seems too big for their mouths!
I bought them some TetraMin Tropical Granules and some Tropical Flakes, but only a small few of these pieces are small enough for them to eat, and the rest fall to the bottom or suck into the filter intake (I never have this problem with my Goldfish!).
Can anyone recommend something for these youngsters? I saw that Hikari makes a "Micropellet", but its hard from the catalogue picture to know if this is really any smaller than what I have.
Should I just keep what I have and sort out the smallest pieces to put in the tank, or is there a better way?! Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
