I'm confused. Is it ok to feed them what? I have a JD, he pretty much eats whatever I give him....frozen bloodworms, OSI Cichlid flakes...and whatever else will fit into his mouth.

No worries. I think Krill would be fine if they like it, can't think of a reason why not. I wouldn't feed it much more than once a week or so...but I dont know what all is in it (ie how nutritious it is) or how expensive it is. Are you talking the freeze dried kind or frozen or??

ehh, try feeding them those about.....a pile about the size of a nickel in circumfrence, they should get thi 1-2 times a day they need to eat it all or next time feed less, try getting it to where they eat a sirtain amount in around 3 minutes, also go to a petstore, like petsmart or a local "fish" store for some frozen foods, they sell it in little plates or in little icecubes, i cude a day would be close to what u need, the foods pretty cheap3-4 $ for about3-4 week supply, u can also get"at petsmart" a lucnh bucket of frozen foods for 25$ and theres a ton of prepared food, just grab a chunk and throw it in. good luck
