so cute when they're small. Make sure you get them on a diet of pellets asap, when i had mine and they were small, they got addicted to bloodworms (which have very low protein content) and basically died of malnutrition. They're fairly finicky so good luck :)

Thank you.

Honestly I don't think it particularly matters. I had mine eating some super cheap, relatively high protein trout farm pellets. Any pellets with 50% protein content+ should be fine but blood worms are 90% water which is why i suggest staying away from them

Oleoleole, I fed Hikari foodsticks and NewLife spectrum pellets, when i kept pleurophthalma. At first there was a starving period, but they soon accepted afterwards.
