Curious how much and how often others feed their aimara. I know at some point they switch over to a one time a week feeding essentially. I used to feed my prior rhom once every 5-7 days as he just didn’t need to eat daily.

I’ve had my aimara for 20 months about. He’s gone from 4in to about 17in I would guess. While I’ve gone 1-2 weeks without feeding either due to travel or pellet training, I do feed him almost daily. Currently I’m giving him 30 massivore pellets when I feed. He begs for food daily and seeks to want more than I give.

Curious what others have seen.

About 77 the past couple months. While I have heaters on the tank they pumps actually heat the water so in summer the water runs around 80-81 but 77 now in the winter thanks to the cold water drip.
