Hello Cabinetman 1 Cabinetman 1 ,
We get reports here on MFK once in a while about fish swallowing non food items. The funny thing is it's almost always an Arowana lol. I'm glad yours is okay.

I really dig that jardini/tiger barbs combo! How did you go about getting them to work out together??
Sorry just saw your message. I just went for it. I was having issues with my Jardini biting at his tail and another aquarist suggested I put a dither fish in to distract him. So I put 12 in there and he hasn't bothered them at all. I am however frustrated, he is a real finiky eater and I am trying to get him into pellets. He has been eating crickets for a while now. Last time he went 3 weeks without food before I gave in. I am trying it again.
