Hello,

My experience parallels that of the others, that most killies WILL eat
flake food.

The best method to teach them to accept dry flake food is to start
feeding early, when the fry are about 1/2" -- one feeding a day. I
usually feed dry food in the morning, when they are the hungriest. After
they learn to eat it, they devour it. Apparently it tastes good!

I use Tetramin Staple and Tetramin Ruby, crushed an sieved to proper
size. Sieved Troutchow (thanks to Lee Harper for introducing me to it
and donating about a pound!) also is taken readilly. One feeding a day
of live food probably takes care of any vitamin deficiency.

Best,

George
