My baby blue diamond finally ate in front of me today after I starved him for like 2 days. (was trying to get rid of some planaria worm by not having food in the tank, can't believe how fast the die off)
Today I drop a piece of shrimp and shortly he took bit at it when I was about 3 ft away from the tank.
even he only took one bit (yea just one bit) and left the rest of the shrimp there it's still exciting seeing it's finally eating in front of me.
i guess they only took enough at each feeding time when hungry, maybe smaller portion next time.
is there any fish I can keep in the same tank to help clean up the left over without being eaten by him?
I don't want to leave the food in the tank to have an other outbreak of worms but don't want to fish out the food after every feeding, that freaks him out.

but it'll be awesom if I can get him grow up to like 8-10", probably will take a long time at the rate he's eating.
