Would this be okay? I heard somewhere that it would be but i was unsure!!

Question about feeding my fish – should I be supplementing their diet?

I have tropical fish – Platies and Mollies. I currently feed them TetraMin flakes, but I’ve heard that it may be a good idea to supplement with brine shrimp or something of the like. Is this something I should be doing? Any other suggestions? Thanks!

Why are my baby Mollys suddenly dieing one by one?

I had about 18 baby mollys in a 2.5 gallon tank but they were dieing one by one in it. So i moved them into the 30 gallon tank with the bigger fish (i used a tank divider so they have about one fifth of the tank. There side includes the heater and a small artificial plant. I notice a baby molly with get slow and stick toward the bottom of the tank but swim up during feeding.I feed them live baby brine shrimp,crushed flakes, regular freeze dried brine shrimp, and i used to feed them first bites. I have had them for about 6 months and they are about half a inch, I just added 2 pregnet mollies to there side of the tank and a baby molly who grew up with them most of there lives (i could only find one baby guppy when i got home). I have it filtered, airstone,heated, and the nitate cycle is fine. I had the water tested with Ph nitrate ext. This is when all y angel fish died and it turned out to be a Ph problem but i fixed it. I also notice some baby mollys eyes look cloudy and swollen.Thanks
They are in a 30 gallon tank with a divider and it is heated, filtered and has a pump. I also balanced out the Ph level that killed my angel fish. I treated the babies for ick about a day after they got into the tank because they had the disease. I also used water condition for cloarine and just changed the filter.

Can you feed bettas regular tropical fish food?

I’m just wondering because I’m allergic to bloodworms, and I think brine shrimp, and I REALLY, REALLY want a betta. So I’m wondering if I can just use my tropical fish food that I use for my guppies, platies and mollies? If not, is there any type of food that DOES NOT contain bloodworms or brine shrimp? Looking for best answer
