Plan on keeping
1 angelfish
6 roseline sharks
6 Congo tetras
8 panda Cory's
1 starlight bristle nose pleco

What should I feed them? How much? How often ?

I was looking into getting nls types. Ie community ( for the sharks, Terras and angel) and the sinking wafers for the Cory's and pleco.

Does that sound right ?

What are your opinions ?????
 
Sounds good. Feed them as much as they can consume in a couple of minutes except the cories. They are slow eaters so allow about half an hour for them. It's good to fast them one day a week to allow them to scavenge any left over food and digest what they've already eaten.

Are you talking about the corys to fast ?

Can I feed them all just the fish food. Or do I also have to feed them bloodworms etc?
 
Fast (don't feed) all the fish once a week. NLS a pretty complete diet in itself but you can treat them with bloodworms, brine shrimp and blanched deshelled peas occasionally.
