My albino senegalus would not eat the piece of earthworm I tried to feed him! :WTF: He swam right up to it, sniffed it a little and moved on.. good thing my green terror is a fat @ss :thumbsup:

On a side note, my little lima shovlenose picked off a huge piece of worm intended for my firemouth, hope he can handle that!! :screwy:

Try to starve your albino senegalus for few days....
then try to feed again .....
hopefully it will take the food you given....

starvation tactics work very well on senegalus. eventually they will break down and eat whatever you want them to.
