How to Get african aro on pellets?

[pythonloose]

I have a 7 inch afro that refuses to easy anything but blood worms, any tips on how to convert it to pellets? I have tried crushing pellets to powder and tiny pieces but it doesn't eat any. I have also soaked pellets along with diced shrimp in blood worms with no success any ideas?


Thanks!

Starve him but for an afro i would wait till he gets a little bigger

the problem is that its growing so slow and i want to feed it more meaty/nutritious foods other than blood worms

Thats weird. Afros are usually open to eat ANYTHING. I wouldn't starve him since Africann. Not really a good idea imo

I would bump the temp up to 84-86 F. Don't feed the African Aro til its full. After 1 week, the African Aro should eat pellets. When it eats pellets, lower the temp down back to your original temp or else, it will be eating everything. My 18"-20" at 86 F ate almost everything I dropped in the tank.

Just starve till it eats.

African Aros are different than other Aros.
