They will feed on leftover food, parts of live plants that shed, and even on dead tank mates. It’s important to remove dead fish from the tank as soon as possible though, as they may cause an ammonia spike in the tank. They will also eat flake foods and sinking pellets, even ones intended for other fish. Algae is another source of nutrition for them.
