[GSAS-Member] Feeding the Slow with the Fast

["Shango Los" <Shango@ShangoLos.com>]

Hello All,

 

I just inherited a large female S. American Cichlid of unknown species.  It
is now in a 80 gallon tank with some other smaller fish including rainbows,
rams, loaches and knife fish.  

 

The problem I am running into is that all the smaller and faster fish are
eating the food before the dear Cichlid even sees it.  She has gotten hungry
and frustrated and is stomping around now.

 

What is the secret that experienced aquarists use to feed the larger fish
when kept with smaller ones?

 

Please advise.  Your experience is appreciated.

 

Shango
