Finally found my fish, guess which one. ;)

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
dead frozon shrimps
Yeah, they're not taking that quite yet.

I'm still holding on to giving live, they've eaten quite expensive meals that I didn't expect them to be able to eat, but since then, haven't eaten anything.

I feed the Geos with pellets, they seem to enjoy swimming with them when they eat, but show no interest in eating said pellets.

I throw some fish filet every other day, best so far was a bite and spit out, I'll keep trying, I don't want them used to live, or it's gonna cost me an arm once they reach a decent size xD
 
don't know have patience , for first 2 or 3 days mine are also not eating
 
Been over a week, been patient enough as it is. xD
They don't look starved, so not quite giving in yet, I'll try fish or shrimps again tonight.

They do mix with the Geos when I feed them, bit cichlid gold+ are not their thing apparently :P
 
today I feed my diplos some wild caught loaches , they eat them vigorously ( live )
 
My goal is to get them off live.
 
Try some mussels
 
Alright, looks like one of them eats lance fish. Took him a few days of nitpicking which piece he wanted and which he didn't to finally gulping any lance fish that hits the water. I tried tricking him into eating a pellet, he tried, and spit it out, oh well.

As for the other one, I had to overfeed the first to allow it to try, he follows the food in the current, then decides he doesn't want it. Improvement, but this one's not quite eating dead yet.

They don't even want to see mussels, though.
