I've got 2 Pajama and one Kaudall.
they always seemed to be competing for the food drops.
now I'm feeding them after the tank and room have gone dark and all the other tank mates are sleeping.
feeding frenzy amongst cardinals.
:cool:
 
They are more nocturnal than most other fish. But they will also do just fine if fed with everybody else during the day.
 
My feeding schedule will be planned for twice a day, first feeding 11AM after lights on and second feeding at 6PM.

During my second feeding at sundown, I wonder if my PJ Cardinals (I plan to get 5) will have any competition for food with another nocturnal species on my stocking list, the Marine Betta?

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
