Im not gonna go and buy tons of different foods cause i know if i just get back to regualr feeding it should go well. I will get vitamins though.
Your fish should be fed once per day, a variety of different frozen formula foods. Fish may "live" on one or two, but they will not thrive without variety. Some people feed their fish twice per day, but the morning feeding is small, and the majority of the nutrition is in the evening when the fish are most active. The use of vitamines will help your fish greatly.
