Aros ate from hand!!!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
never tried it coz maybe i'm a bit wary that a monster fish might bite my hands off. ;)
 
nice. did you have to train him? starve ect....
also there's some cool movies in the video section where
someone's feeding his dats and peacock bass by hand.
 
Actually I didn't have to train any of them. They just have been leery about coming up to my hand. I've been trying every day before I feed them, and yesterday they just decided to take a bite.

Ever since I started feeding mine crickets he won't even go near the krill anymore, :swear: but he'll eat anything else I give him, so far.
 
My big silver has eaten from my hand for awhile, but I still use my feeding stick as im fond of my fingers. :ROFL:
 
Speakin of which, I just got bit twice today while feeding. Didn't hurt though. Just a slight nip. The thing that hurt most was the first one scared the crap out of me cause he came from a blind spot. I pulled my hand so fast, that I hit the hood to the tank. That one hurt.

If the aro won't eat the krill, but will eat the crickets, try gut loading your crickets with the krill.
