Favorite Foods to Feed Large Arowana's?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
hi guys i feed my rtg meal worms and crickets and prawn,he does occasionally eat a little krill and i more or less starved him for 6 weeks to try and get him to eat pellets but he never eats them,tried massivore cichlid gold and jbl etc

I tried stuffing the prawns with the pellets but he just doesnt eat the prawn then!

Cheers steve
 
AZOO I am not familiar with this....I think I heard about it...please inform me more about where to buy, what it contains, and positive things about the product as well as negatives. Thanks! ;)
Azoo Arowana Vitamins is a liquid that contains various B vitamins as well as A, D, E and beta glucin for aros (according to the label). It is meant to be added to the water but I use it to enrich market prawn by soaking it overnight. Hopefull, I am not overdosing them! I do this for one feeding out of six. I purchased a one gallon jug of it off of ebay for $100 Canadian including shipping. It seems to have enhanced the color of my aro and other fish but maybe they are just getting more mature. Who knows?

It hasn't hurt the fish so I guess I'll keep using it. My lfs also adds vitamins to his water but I forget what brand.

Azoo is a chinese brand Mistire...I do not like it, although others vouch for it.

Try to see if you can get hold of the german JBL Aro pellets ( NeoDragon they're called )
I will see....it will probably be something I must order off the internet.....hawaii is limited when it comes to options and my LFS is the only one unless you drive 2 hours to the other side of the island. They are opening a Petco here! :headbang2:nilly::popcorn::D
