Aquarium Advice Regular
I've got a couple of platies so far and they're very happy and healthy. One thing I'm curious about is how much I should be feeding them.
Everywhere I read says to feed them what they can eat in a minute or two, twice daily. Well here's what's throwing me off...my platies wait until the flakes float around to the filter and the water shoots them under.
As you can imagine it's hard to measure exactly how much to feed them with this method...the flakes float around and one by one get shot down from the water coming out through the filter. They love catching them midway before they hit the bottom.
Any advice is much appreciated!
