I want to say finally after 10 weeks, as of yesterday and today, I believe the gatf finally recognizes dojo loaches that I've been feeding my stingrays as a food source. It was brutal watching over him without any signs of eating for this long. I can't wait until he regains his mass. Towards the end of the fast, he started taking bites at all the tank mates. The aparacio got a bit of his tail and disc chomped on.

yes I enjoy watching the hunt as that is what even got me into mfk keeping in the first place. However, i noticed the water quality stay more consistent and better for longer while feeding non live versus live. The massive mess they make that becomes detritus sours the water quality too fast. Until I build a new setup with proper plumping and a drip system, I'm going stay on the lowest amount of maintenance necessary since it is still by manual means.
