I just recieved my chingmix today and here are the beginning pics of my two FH. I am hoping that this works for me as good as it did for everyone else. Will Try and give Two week picture updates on how it all is going. I purchased the Maxima SP80 and the Headbooster SP80. If there are any suggestions on how i should feed this out, I am open to everything to make this stuff work.

Be sure to feed plenty of live food along with the chingmix and not just straight pellets, this will help his digestion. Blood worms seem to work very well with chingmix

IMHO its not as good as Bloodworms, but its not bad for your fish. Krill works well in bringing out the redness in FH, whereas bloodworms work better as the digestive aid...

yep,
bloodworms are the best to feed. Feed it twice a week and also when you feed it, first feed some pellets, then after feed the bloodworms. Turn of you filter during feeding of bloodworms so it doesnt go into the filter. -------------------- To order Chingmix email sales@chingmixusa.com

Here are a few pics of after feeding chingmix for 2 or 3 weeks. I think it is working more on my female than my male.

Color is more intense on both of them but there is no kok improvement on the male. I guess you will need to give them more time and BTW, how much CM do you feed them on the daily basic? Do you stuff their stomach every meal and
 then give them BW as treated?

I feed them CM 2 to 3 times a day and then Krill or BW in the evenings. I feed them until they don't eat any more. I just picked up some frozen brine shrimp. All i got right now is freeze dried BW.

![4_12_12[1].gif](http://www.flowerhorncraze.com/style_emoticons/default/4_12_12[1].gif) I don't know, for two weeks with Chingmix? I think if your fish has it (genes), in two weeks time, at least you can see a difference even a bit. Expecially in Kok. I can be wrong and stand to be corrected. But that's my opinion.

Well when i took the pics my pair was about to lay eggs. So that could have had an effect. I now have them separated so they can't see each other. The male is with the eggs and he seems to be protecting them and faning them. Will see if anything happens. Its been 24 hours now. fingers crossed
