That could become an issue. Passive things I've been doing in my tank (like growing lots of macro - chaeto and caulerpa) have slowed the dino growth in the DT, so it's a valid concern.
If anyone has a substitute dino sized - 10-50 micron round particulate - food in mind, that would be helpful.
I currently toss in skimmate, fish food, and dead phyto.
Here's a vid of my sandbed on 40x for a shot of what sorts of things are in there.
