I got him about a week or so back from TFD. He is eating live earthworms and live blackworms. I would like to get him on frozen foods. Anyone have suggestions? I have tried, krill, bloodworms, and mysis shrimp. ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED!

Retics are notorious picky eaters. Keep offering other foods with the blackworms and eventually it should get the point. If I was you i would go see how much a full pound would be from the LFS. If it's really pricey there I can get a pound for $15 and I would pass the savings on to you.
WOW $15 a pound? Can you put that in a prespective of how big of a container that is? I pay $2 for a little euro cup of them, which is about 1 full tablespoon....
my ray was in a 150 with an inch of pea gravel, and no decorations. Nothing special. It sounds like your setup is working. Congrats. If you can get a pound of worms, i would go for it, i got my blackworms from uncle bills on the southside and it ran about 2 bucks for a tablespoon
I'm like what I imagine! Sounds like a deal to me! How long and how do I keep a poind of worms? Oh, and do you ever come down to Indy so I don't have to drive a hour and a half to get them! Thanks!
I kept them in my basement (cooler temps) in a 10 and did daily water changes.
do a google search on california black worms and it will tell you how to care for them
I do make it to indy once in a while on the weekends, but I can only get the blackworms on wed. Otherwise it would cost more
