Awesome!! I heard crayfish is good for strengthening teeth? I know jacks have a tendency to break their teeth did you have that problem?
Mines eating Massivore, crickets, crayfish and Barramundi fillets.
Has anyone ever kept this???

All of my lutes have broken a tooth here and there. But, the teeth have all grown back.
If needed you can give crayfish a bath in epsom salt (1-2 tablespoons/5 gals) to force a molt in about a day. Softshell crays will cut down on tooth sheds a bit.

Jeff Rapps has L.griseus on his list.I have kept argentimaculatus a few times but I have not seen them in any shops for a few years...some places here used to try and market small ones as red finned datnoids.
Nope, hes in what could be considered almost fresh. Only 2 teaspoons of marine salt for every 10 litre's of water.
Seems to also have bigger canines than the Lutjanus. Also not built like Lutjanus, quite a slim petite fish and definitely not as aggressive, still a fish with an attitude problem. but nothing like the Mangrove.
Also seems to be VERY picky with what it eats. Lucky for me it only took a few days to get the Jack onto pellets. Been trying to get the perch to eat massivore for I don't know how long. Starved for 3 weeks and still didn't touch it. Won't touch crayfish, live blackworm, pellets, frozen. Will only eat live shrimp and nothing else, starting to piss me off!
