Feeding fish question

bobbyjoe

Do fish swim up and eat the pellets whole or do they dissolve and they swim around eating the bits?

it depends how big the fish are but most will swim up and take the pellets

Thanks for the reply.
Their Black Widows pretty small. They don't seem to be seeing the food not going for it but they are swimming around faster when it goes in so maybe thier eating bits that break off? Any ideas could something be wrong?
