My platys and barbs are like that too, and the food wasn't getting to the bottom for the bottom feeders, I do the same as lexus, flake and pellets at the same time, cause they are fast piggies, but can't be in two places at once. The bottom feeders are learning to be fast, they adapted. I lure them to one side with the flakes, and drop the pellets on the other side when they are distracted, the sharks are learning to head to the left corner when they see the mass dash to the right corner.
