Chingmix

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
i use chingmix as my color enhancer and only feed my fhs a mix of the headbooster and maxima once a day every other day
try to mix it up with your feedings and have a veggie based pellet as well
 
im still trying to get mine to eat chingmix for 3 weeks now, he'll eat one or two and spit out the rest, KOK shrunk a bit but colors a little better. Now even rejecting GS Red. Any suggestions?

starve him for a couple of days... that always seem to work.

I am telling you man, they know it's poison food for them or something. My Fhs usually take ANY pellets within a day or two of starving, except Chingmix.

well at first mine didnt take it but i through it in there anyway and never fed them the whole day, once the biggest fry took one the rest followed. and how its eating no problem, i just give it to them as a snack.
 
no good. tried now for 3 weeks. i gave up as it keeps stealing raw shrimp from bichirs, and it hates eatin raw shrimp. only feeding bloodworms and freeze dried krill
 
hmm yeah i usually starve my fh for a day before introducing chingmix to it
one time it took as long as a 2 weeks for it to start eating it
but they all eat it and seem to love it now..
it works.. but as jp stated, that might be because i have not seen their "full potential" yet so any gain is a "good gain"

i've been using chingmix for quite awhile. my flowerhorn has a decent size nuchal. but then again, i also feed it to my male midas, and it doesn't have a hump. my lfs feeds them to there flowerhorns and they swear it works, there FH have huge humps. so i'd have to agree that it helps out if the potential is there.


which lfs is this?
