Hey guys! So I am in need of the best pellet food that clownfish will eat! I have new life spectrum marine but they do not seem to be to into it. I am curious if there is a better food that they will like, it would prefer it would be capable of being in the neptune apex afs

Piscine Energetics pellets work for me, but it depends on if they are CB or WC as CB clowns are typically raised on these kinds of foods and are more likely to accept them compared to their WC counterparts

They are ORA so captive bred

I would try the Piscine pellets; they have a few different sizes; my CB clowns turned their nose up at a lot of dry foods but appeared to take this one rather eagerly. I soak mine in tank water for a couple minutes so they sink quicker and the fish have an easier time consuming them. Good luck.
 
I use Hikari marine s for my clowns and they eat it up, they are ORA breed fancys. They also gobble up freeze dried mysis shrimp like there is no tomorrow. I sprinkle the Hikari dry directly in the HOB filter stream and they instantly sink. On the mysis I put on a small plate, mash them flat, cover in a little water and dump into HOB filter stream, they sink pretty good. If you don't mash them they float forever.
