how to make food sink

[Justice]

Ok today I just got some freeze dryed krill. My lowlights went crazy,
grabbing bigger pices than they are and gulping it down. Althugh one
problem. I mainly got it for my CL and yoyo loaches and it just flots I
know it will probably sink over time unless it gets cought in the
plants. What would be a good way to have it submerged right off the bat
for them loaches?

TIA

You can try soaking it in a hot water for a few minutes. That often makes
fish food sink.

Can you get frozen pacific krill, as it is slightly bigger pieces and my
clowns love it. Most dry food will not sink, but frozen then thawed will
sink a bit more. My 10 clowns come to meet me at the top and eat as it goes
in. Live bloodworm will sink the quickest of all.
