Hi all,

I've just purchased some chili raspboras however they are tiny! I purchased some micro pellets (which I had to crush) however they try, then spit it out 😱 and couple look quite thin.

I was thinking of hatching brine shrimp/micro worms or something along those lines - I have no idea where to start or how to do it 😆
 
I looked in to feeding tiny mouths for my Pygmy corys.
1. You can grind up a variety of pellets with a pepper grinder to almost a dust. I use several types of pellets in my custom mix. I feed this every day.
2. “Repashy community plus” is good as bits come off and it’s soft. I feel this every few days.
3. “Instant baby brine shrimp” are the perfect size for tiny mouths. I feed this a few times a week.
4. I added a variety of small live feeds like daphnia and microworms. Just for some entertainment/ enrichment. I did this a couple of times and probably will do again one day.
 
I had a similar question a while ago, there is plenty of helpful responses in that thread (LINK to thread). I found that crushed up flake food was quite effective. The one I use is Fluval Bug Bites colour enhancing flakes.
