Any group buys on New Life Spectrum?

[phillyofish]

I know we had this before, on the old site. It might not have been a site thing but was picked up at an auction. Does anyone have connects?

[Flareside]

dont mean to start a war, but that stuff is quite pricey. If I may...My fish devour Cichlid Attack from HBH and its CHEAP. (See Ken's website) I fed two separate tanks of yellow labid fry right up through to 2" juvie size to do a side by side comparison of HBH Attack versus NLS and swear there was no difference in their growth, color, appearance etc...

If you guys are ever at a show and Ken is there, grab a half pound of the HBH attack pellet and try my experiment yourselves. You may realize two things:

1.) RD is undoubtedly a great salesman (among other things)
2.) that you will have a larger budget allocated toward purchasing fish as opposed to just feeding them so-called "top of the line food"

Sorry, this is just my opinion that I formulated by doing my own experiment, I sincerely dont mean to start the NLS war on here and I apologize in advance if I have offended staff or members

[phillyofish]

i'm not offended Flare. I'll give it a try.

Thanks Bill,
i'll be looking to get some 3mm pellets for my fronts. I got a 1/4 bucket to go.

[phillyofish]

I may have to starve them for a couple of days so they're hungry.I've been feeding them NLS for the past 3 years. I think I tried the soft pellets and they didn't care for it.

I was told by Ken that my fronts would love the moist krill pellet.
Mpimbwe's didnt eat it.
Burundi's didnt eat it.
Zaire's didnt eat it.

They all eat the HBH Attack pellet :partay:

[Afreakin]

give them some time to get aquatinted :a-okhand:

[joe_jaskot]

Try Hikari carnivore sticks. All fish will eat them.

[phillyofish]

the sticks float right, I use the sinking pellets to reduce bloat/float

[Heyguy74]

That website looks good.

[kenpur]

Ken's Fish also has the "no carb" food that is comparable to NLS and Xtreme except for the large price.

[gregga]

my fronts eat the HBH attack and soft krill pellets...however I agree with Philly, I wont feed them floating foods....

[Flareside]

floating food is definitely bad for fronts. Float is a very real possibility.

Then you end up having to add epsom salt to your water to try and purge the air from their digestive tract and swim bladded.

NLS, Attack, and soft krill pellets sink- thank GOD!
