These albino long fin Ancistrus are around a month old.  They seem to like Repashy Soilent Green gel food.  The gel piece is about the size of a quarter coin and about 1/4 inch thick.

I think the gel has a 'mouth feel' that the fish really like.  This is the same gel I fed to the PetSmart $1 Otocinclus when I got them to spawn.

Maybe tonight, I'll video their older siblings eating.  Being much larger, they are quite entertaining to watch feed.   ;D

Yep, I just set-up the tripod and started the video.  Went on to feed the rest of the fish and when I was finished came back and turned off the camera.  Looked like many of them were full by then anyway  LOL

Willie, if you order through Stephan, tell him Dennis sent you.  LOL  Might be a good time to try out those cube filters too and save on shipping.

I'm going to order 2 of those 5 inch cubes with the jet lifters and the 12 ounce gel food from Stephan. I won't order until Tuesday because that's when the new cycle starts on the CC I have assigned to Paypal. lol

Thanks Dennis, I will do that.
