What to feed a 1.5 inch Rainbow shark?? I've got a young one that I don't think is eating, and is losing color. Turning really light color. Water conditions are below. I've been trying to feed him algae wafers but I think his tank mates, 10 tiger barbs and a small black snail have been eating all the disk. There is PLENTY of real algae to eat. I've been feeding small flakes. He'll take a bite or two then swim away. Same result for the blood warms.
My adult in my larger tank will eat anything that will fit in it's mouth, flakes mainly. I got him at 4 inches long so I've not much experience with younger ones.
HELP!
I've been doing fairly regular water changes; it's a planted tank that I'm just about fished on the CO2 system for.
Test taken on a AP master kit.
The tank is a 20G long, being filtered with a whisper 40. Been going for about 4 months now. All other fish are very happy, active and healthy.
PH 7.2
KH is 40 PPM
GH is about 100
AM is 0.0 or Practical 0 on my kit
NO2 is 0.0
NO3 is 15
