Thanks but yea....the anorexic leopard didn't make it. I kept buying tubifex worms for it but it was really not a good eater at all. Meanwhile my boesemani rainbow fish in that comm tank really enjoyed themselves as they were the fastest to all the worms! if anyone wants two really well fed boesemani rainbowfish just let me know, as i can't really separate them at feeding time from stuffing their faces.

Live feed like tubifex worms contains heavy metals and parasites , which is no good for your discus , so if can don't use it. You can use frozen heart meals or pellets , for your fishes .
