I belive they have a hard time digesting the food so i feed heavy every 3 days it seems to do well.

It took my "false tigrinus" 10 hours to get rid of it's bulge that didn't seem too big. It ate that yesterday and ignored the food I threw in today.

I'm in the same boat with my Juruense too. I'm only feeding him every 3 days, and once he eats he shows no interest in the other foods I feed my dats.

He's still only showing interest in live though. I'm nervous about starving him because he is so small. I figured I'll bulk him up a bit on live foods, then take the plunge into getting him on frozen/prepared foods.

I had mine in with a Juruense about the same size as my little tig they did not get along at all

my jurense will gorge himself till it looks like he's going to explode. Never had a problem with him getting sick yet though, but he's still only like 7.5" yet, but is getting a nice pattern.

Ya mine is the same way but i just dont want to take the chance of loosing him to overfeeding.
