Need opinions on fish diet.

[MexicanFish]

I will list the fish in my tank and would like opinions on what would be the best diet to them.
tiger barbs
daffodil cichlids
plecos
bala sharks
purple goby
bichir

So, what would be the best diet for them?

BTW, I put cucumber for my plecos, they like it, and recently I started using calabacita squash and they go babanas over it.

Wow... What are you feeding now, besides veggies for the plecos?

[Nickintex]

NLS Thera A small (if you can stand the smell) or Tetra Colorbits.

Wow... What are you feeding now, besides veggies for the plecos?

regular tropical flakes and cichlid flakes, and frozen bloodworms and frozen brine shrimp with spirulina as a treat ocasionally.

well looks like you already got a pretty good diet for them

You look like you have a good diet for them. For a staple I like Nick's suggestion but the Bichir is going to need a variety of meaty foods. What you you can also try is shrimp from the grocery store (cut into small pieces) and white fish like tilapia (also from the grocery store cut into pieces). Oh btw they may have put some Sodium Tripolyphosphate on them to retain moisture. You can try to wash it off if you like but it should be okay.

These are just a few suggestions from what I have read/researched.

For the most part I think your diet is okie. What flake are you feeding ? I am going to agree with Nick here.. If you want a quality food, switch to NLS Thera A 1mm -- All your fish should be able to handle this. Thera A has garlic in the food and this helps with the immune system in fish.

Unless you are feeding a high quality flake I would switch to something better. I would stop feeding brine shrimp.. They have little value to your fish once they are of size. Bloodworms will do them better.

If you like flake, I recommend Ken's flake -- see http://www.kensfish.com/
