Yep, feeding it & the fish seem to love it. You've got some fussy fish there!

Unless that's the Posaqua stuff, there seems to have been a problem with the last batch.

if u stop feeding the bloodworms and tetra bits and introduce the discus dinner they will eat it eventually and then they will love it after a while, then re introduce the bloodworm occasianly and the tetra bits. had the same with discus deluxe, they wouldnt touch it at first but after a while they absolutely love it, just takes them a while to get used to it...

deluxe i like too, has other things like banana and garlic (from memory?)
just with the discus foods watch how long you store them for, sometimes they go starch white when you place them in the tank which can mean they are way to old

thanks heaps everyone, will start looking for discus deluxe as well, the've taken to the discus dinner just they dont obliterate it like my other discus do, i think Wayne and Bec have been spoiling them while i was on my honeymoon :P. just kidding guys. They still look great thanks again for taking care of them for me till the tank was ready.
