I have a little baby aba aba knife thats about an inch and half. Has no yolk sac. I was wondering what i should feed the little guy.
 
that's a nice one how much did you pay for it
 
Aba aba are carnivores, feeding on crustaceans, insects, worms, and fish in their native environment. Although they will eat insects, worms, shrimp, and crayfish in captivity, the easiest food to feed them is gut-loaded live feeder fish. They can be trained to eat chunks of dead freshwater fish and thawed raw shrimp which will help to keep the food expenses lower than if you exclusively feed live feeder fish.

Count on providing a LARGE single-species aquarium for this species due to reaching 5 1/2 feet in length and 40 lbs in weight.
 
Sorry for your loss :( I was going to say good luck with small knives...they always seem to be hard to get up to a manageable size.

Thanks everyone. Though sadly the aba aba died, i guess it was really sensative considering it's size.
