Where yo buy those Hikari Lionhead or Tetrabits?
Siow liao, i still have about 11 slab of the BW in my fridge

my big altifrons wack small froggies if they got the chance too. sometimes when mood is good, i'll buy ghostshrimps for them to eat. pellets still the easiest. better to train them on pellets before moving to other variety.
