Not sure if this forum is still active but cannot find anything my new embers will eat. I have tried Carl's crumbles soaked, hijari micropellets, spirulina 20 crumbled, omega one, NLS pellets, FD bloodworms and shrimp. I have had 1 ember in tank alone for a long time and he ate spirulina flakes fine. But the new ones are much paler and younger.

Many have migrated to the Facebook version of this group. www.facebook.com/groups/471149673786076As for feeding, have you tried Spirulina Enhanced Brine Shrimp? www.americanaquariumproducts.com/HikariFoods.html#spirulinabrine. You also might try soaking one of your fish foods in cod liver oil or opening an Omega 3 capsule into some fish food for more attraction

I'm sorry but I just have one more question...can I use flax seed oil to soak fish food in(any down side to using in fish). I tried it once and they loved it although it was not very "fishy" tasting I am sure.

All I could find on line was someone using flaxseed oil to shrink tumors in Koi (and one mouse)
