Longnose Distichodus

Hello everyone I recently got a beautiful 7" Distichodus lussoso for 40$ from a LFS. First day I seen some nipping but nothing much since thankfully. He is currently in a 210g with a diverse variety of fish: bichirs, South American cichlids, lei Arowana, Pleco, catfish etc. I needed some help as far as a more advanced diet and possibly some personal experience. Thanks

One of my favorite fish, but I've never had much luck with them long term. It seems its almost always a matter of time before they go back to their nippy ways. The best advice I can give is to up the flow and give him some little barb-type fish to chase around the tank.
