What flake food do you feed?

I'm presently trying to get my Peacock Gudgeons to eat other stuff than live/frozen food as they live in a community and they should eat veggies as well.
I am very concerned about feeding high quality food to all of my pet, and my fishes are not an exception.
Up till now, the only nice food I have found is in pellet form, which my gudgeons won't even look at.

What flake food do you guys use? Smile

I use new life spectrum flakes, all the fish love them except the badis.

I use mostly Ken's fish foods. Now, I work at an LFS but I still make sure that I bring back a decent supply of food when I go down to the US and see Ken at a convention. His prices are good and I can find varieties of food that I can't elsewhere.... (well, there is one but I refuse to do business with him).

I like to use an assortment of different foods and it does depend on the type of fish that I am dealing with too. My Tropheus and Goodeids get more helpings of veggie or cichlid flake but most of my other fish also get earthworm, blackworm, shrimp & krill or spirolina flakes. I also have some fry foods including a micro pellet with about 60% protein.
