Delhezi Bichir

Am I going to be able to train them to eat pellets and freeze dried food?

 

[Cohazard]

yes it's possible, but it will be muuuuch easier if you start with a juvie.

Generally, delhezi are not picky eater. Have plenty of patience and starve it till it's eating pellets.

My senegal was just converted from frozen bloodworms and beefheart to freeze dried shrimp,bloodworms,and krill. Although no pellets yet. Took about 1 month to convert but he was also getting feed not being starved.

haha okay thanks! i've seen the pretty small ones active and swimming around and the medium sized ones(6") just hiding in corners but what are the activity levels of adults?

Any brands you like to feed them? (pellets & freeze dry)

Hikari sinking carnivore are a major part of the diet for my group.I haven't found Hikari massivore pellets localy but they should work just as well.Many people use new line spectrum or order from Kensfish,com-Anne
