Algae wafer problem

[Censis]

Hi guys, I feed algae wafer to my fei feng and plecos every night.. Nothing went wrong until just now I saw my tfb, holding on the wafer even though it's too big for them and swimming around rapidly tryin to swallow.. Making my fei feng and pleco cannot eat the wafer, and making my whole tank cloudy!! Any advise?

Do a partial WC or remove the TFB?

That sounds normal. My FFs are pretty fierce though. They chase away my EBHs and return back to the wafers.

Yup, my ff also chase my tfb around even through they are x2 his size.. Only after awhile he chase then they let go algae wafer.. By then my whole water become cloudy already! Cos the tfb hold on and swim around.. Any advise besides removing the tfb?

Break the wafer into halves or smaller bits
