hello every one! its my 1st post! ( i been surfing for about 3month?)
this site helped me so much.. this is awesome site!!
i had my poly lapradei for 7month now.. its about around 9inch? (its hard to get measurements.. it moves!).. well back to the topic.. i am feeding. hikari, shrimps, earth worms. (my poly has been hating on Hikari for while i dont know y? ) but i always wanted my poly to be little chubby. how do you guys get it so chubby?? beef heart?

I have Needle Nose for my tank mate. is it seems to be fine.
 
Try silver sides worked well on my poly.
 
frogs are little bit expensive around where i live.. i want to try tho.. every one is talking about Silver Side.. i still don't get what it looks like.. and picture ( i can't find it.)

feed them my poly won't eat.. sounds good but.. is it safe? to do that.
 
i feed mines mealworms the red 1, mines i remember was thin as my index finger now its like fat like a hotdog
 
Feed it with plenty of meaty food. I feed mine with frozen gobies and weather loaches to make them bulky. They grow faster too if feed with weather loaches.

Of all the bichir species Lapraedei are the laziest when it comes to feeding time.
