Thanks for all the nice comments! Since the last update, I finally got him eating NLS (Jumbo Fish 4.5 Floating). So he's been eating that exclusively with the occasional earth worm as a treat. As far as size, he's over 12". At this point, I feels he's border-line too large for the 75g and...

A few new pictures of the beast:

I'm going to recommend you read this: http://www.americanaquariumproducts.com/AquariumKH.html

Nothing is safe with my flowerhorn except my hand and that's only a recent development.

I always liked this ad:

1/25/2011: 2/17/2011: Still doing weekly 50% water changes. Nitrates have decreased since adding the Pothos, but nothing remarkable yet. Edit: Just wanted to add, I have also noticed a decrease in algae growing on the glass.

I use them in my 75, 29, and two 10 gallons. Wondershells won't raise your pH but will help stabilize your KH. They will raise your GH. I use Seachem Marine Buffer to raise the KH. Just about everything you'd want to know about GH, KH, and pH is right here...

I just use Wonder Shells for GH and small doses of Marine Buffer at water changes for KH.

My FH does the same thing every once in a while.

HITH is more of a water quality issue.

I'm plagued by high nitrates as well and decided to give pothos a shot. It has been a few weeks now and I'm noticing a drop in nitrates along with some super root growth. Check this thread: http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=165929

I wanted to add this to my original post but doesn't look like I can edit it? Dainichi XL PRO White fish meal, wheat germ, wheat flour, krill, spirulina, soybean meal, brewer’s yeast, calcium montmorillonite clay, powdered milk, vitamin mix, mineral mix, garlic, protease and natural gum...

Disagree with the first part (pointless) but agree with the second (CA cichlid). I'm just trying to hit the most common ones we feed to FH's. FH specific and otherwise. Having a thread like that would've helped me plenty and saved me some money. There are. Seems each has a different...

Thanks and will do!

Definitely shoot them my way! I'll look up Hai Feng. Forgot about that one. Just remembered Danachi too. I just listed the ones I could think of off the top of my head. Also, I was just going to list available prepared foods and their ingredients.

It appears to be quality food but I think adding "Headbooster" to the title was nothing more then gimmick considering the ingredients and order are identical.

Since I see so many "what's the best food for my FH?" threads and I've done tons of research myself I figured I'd sacrifice a little of my time to list the typical high-end fish food we consider along with ingredients and analysis (when available). Feel free to add anything I missed. BTW, I...

They look identical: Chingmix Headbooster SP100 PRO Fish Meal, Shrimp Meal, Pure Spirulina Maxima, astaxanthin, Omega 3 EPA/DHA & Essential Fatty Acids (various HUFA), Soybean Meal, Corn Meal, Wheat Flour, Wheat Germ, Lecithin, Yeast, Natural bile acids, Multi Vitamins, Minerals, Soluble low...

You've been very helpful RD. Thanks! Mine is more of the hand feeding type when it comes to pellets. If I just drop them in there and walk away they'd be sitting on the bottom when I came back. Tonight I'll cut them in half and see if that helps. I think I'm going to eventually have to go...

Makes sense because the Omega 1 floating I fed him are roughly the same size as the 6mm TherA sinking but mine didn't have a problem with them. Chew, crunch, swallow. No mess. Which formula do you feed your FH? Floating or sinking?
