I have an oranda and a moor housed together.
The moor is 2-3 times the size of the oranda but still struggles to compete for food due to it's poor sight. The oranda can be on the opposite side of the tank to where I'm trying to feed the moor and swim over and get all of the food before the moor manages to get one bite.
Other than using a divider during feeding time, does anyone know of any tricks for making sure a less abled fish gets it's fair share of food?
The reason I'm not sold on using a divider is that the tank is planted and has driftwood in it, so this wouldn't work.
