Hey all ,

I'm new to Tropheus :love: , and I've been doing a bit of reading on the net about feeding them.

I've come across heaps of conflicting info :dunno: , as you do with the web.

I found this page, it was a really good read :cofn: , check it out....

Great article.

NLS is the way to go!!

i have fed NLS to my trophs for a while now and they do great. It is a good quality food but i have found it no better than the jbl novo rift i also feed.

Growth rate is also alot better with nls.

It is a good article There are tons of them here http://www.cichlid-food-canada.com/ that I have read too, you do always have to apply a scaling factor when something is written by or for the manufacturer though would be nice to see some independent research done.. In saying that I feed NLS and find it a great food

So true 8)

Growth rate is also alot better with nls.

i have seen no difference between growth on NLS and JBL at all.

:thup: WELL DONE HOMEWORK :thup:

Good article.

read that before.

I think good quality brands are much of a muchness really.

in saying that, i have only used discus formula, thera a formula and large fish formula in the past.

i still found that HIkari has had the best growth and a more active fish, in terms of colours, my flowerhorn developed way stronger colours after fedding hikari than feeding NLS

thats my experience.

Massivore to me is the best food i have ever seen in growing and putting mass on fish, NLS has an equivalent food but they dont import it here yet, havent tried that.

but i think as long as it is a good quality, it will be a good food.

i still personally use hikari, and in fact, use ONLY hikari.
