| Hi, are JBL catfish pellets okay for BN or do they not have enough algae and have too high protein? |

| Usually Catfish pellets are for fish with an omnivore diet so they are higher in protein. They could be given as as occasional treat but not on a regular basis.

| Thanks guys - a man near me who 'knows it all!' told me to feed these and not algae wafers! Everything else he's told me is not what I've known or learnt so I was quite suspiscious |

| Its sad but unfortuantly there are people who are idiots, and my heart does go out to them. It does get annoying when they spout garbage and claim to be experts on the issue though. Most generic petshops fall into this catagory  _________________ Doug's Bristlenose eBook - The number one source of Bristlenose information and the most detailed breeding guide avaliable
