but goldfish isnt healthy... Is it okay to feed him until he is fat then change diet?
 
Okay. Since I live in the Philippines its bery hard to gget some massivoirs so I plan on feeding mussels. Will it make it fat?
 
Tilapia mssivore and feed twice a day
 
stuff carnivore sinking pellets if possible inside shrimp. If your bichirs are small cut the shrimp small enough so they can eat it and stuff some pellets in there. Thats how i got mines growing so big and fat
 
Imo your bichirs look fine the way they are, they are still juvenile, and start to get stocky when they get bigger, just feed them a healthy diet of tilapia, earthworms, blood worms, and sinking pellets high in protein.
 
So you're trying to kill them on purpose? Perhaps animals are not the best hobby for you.
