I have had some very small ember tetras for a few weeks now and they have been really difficult to feed. I’ve tried live, frozen, powdered dried foods, fry foods and crushing commercial fish foods. They must be eating something as they are still here and have grown a little. I have never seen them actively feeding until tonight.
I bought some Multi Micro baby fish food from Aqua Core and the ember tetras went mad for it. The cherry shrimp who I rarely see in the heavily planted tank all came out and were feeding high in the tank on wood like filter feeders or trying to feed from the surface by hanging on floating plants. Looking at the company website they mainly make coral/marine foods.
The food stinks. It smells like wet Repashy but whatever it contains it really appeals to little fish and shrimp. 54% protein and 12% fat so quite rich.
Worth a try if you keep tiny fish or have fry to feed
