He doesn't realize the shrimp is food.The first time i used ghost shrimp as feeders my senegals followed them all over eventually they figured it out and wiped out a dozen in a matter of minutes-Anne

cool, so just sit and wait? hes small but there are some ghost shrimp in there that he should be able to fit in his mouth.

if you really want to you could always drop a dead one in there. Of course this means you have to kill it though...

Um, the first time I did it, I squeezed it. It's quick and painless.

I only had to do it it once or twice.
After they realized that it was food and that it tasted good they started hunting them and eating them alive.

Beefheart, switched them from bloodworms to mainly that (along with pellets) and although they liked the bloodworms, they like the beefheart much more. Also, the two really seems to be packing on size quicker as a result.
