Hello,

sorry for your loss ...

I also lost one of my senegals weeks ago - he also had bigger eyes than stomach ... but he did his oral suicide with the litle help of sturgeon pellets! He couldn't stop eating, was the first when food came into the tank (even quicker than my Channa pulchra, and he's a beast!). The other fish got nothing - and the senegalus were blown up day by day like a zeppelin. One day his hunger ended deadly for him, i had no chance to stop the crazyness.
Anything must be wrong in his head ...

Greetings

Uwe

thats unfortunate, it goes to show the gluttons they can be though.

Wow that sucks.
Here we are hearing about a senegal taking fish to big and my 8" won't even take 1" feeders. Only live thing it eats is earthworms.

Hello,

mine who died "exploded" after only feeding sturgeon pellets - diameter ca. 2-3mm!

Not only size matters ... even quantity!

Look here what these little feed balls could do with a senegal:
