Grew both of them when they were small as a worm.

their awesome
what do you feed them?

 

[Shaihulud]

When younger they ate tubifex worms and moina, then gradually to cut market prawns and carnivore pellet. Now they subsist on massivore/wafer tablets you can see them eating now.

These are some babies I am growing out, caught it in a pond at my workplace. They breed during the rainy season which was a month ago. These eat frozen bloodworms.
