I think its okay for the adults to fight for the food. As long as you spread some powdered food such as bioplus, ada bacter 100 or crushed shrimp food around for the babies. this helps prevent fighting around the large piece of food in the dish. I&#39;ve recently started to crush up food into fine powder to spread around the tank in addition to the large pellets I put in the petri dish.<br /><br />Your method is like mine, except the amount of powder food I spread around is very small and I am sure that 90%+ will be eaten. With your method, the pellets are small enough for the shrimp to carry around so finding the left over food after two hours is harder and you might miss a piece or two leading to rotting and will pollute the water. So make sure all the small pellets you put in will be eaten.Kevin Z.
