Super, imho there are few greater joys in this hobby compared to seeing a stubborn fish finally take to eating pellets.

Very true! One of my bichirs would not eat pellets for 3-4 months!! It finally gave in a few weeks ago!

Nice to hear it's on pellets Hao, look forward to seeing it become plump and healthy.
