L083 question

[abpositive]

Anyone know the long term effect of a nearly 90% carnivorous diet for an L083 under 2 years old?

I bought her at an inch long last August. she was on a mixed diet of veggies and colorbits and wafers until she was about 3 or 4 inches--which didn't take long, and now she's been in my Discus tank (it was supposed to be temporary) since probably December.

She seems perfect and gorgeous, but she won't eat the veggies dropped in any more--can't say I blame her when there's colorbits, bloodworms, and brine shrimp instead.

I'm starting to worry.

Nothing wrong, just keep offering an array of foods, and dont put different foods in all at the same time, otherwise they'll satisfy themselves with their favourite and not look at anything else. I've never had them refuse potatoes really at any age. You can always try algae wafers or herbivore pellets as a last resort (but check the contents, a lot are protein based).

Thanks,
I do put in wafers and veggies often, but since I have to feed the Discus twice a day, I know that she's eating mostly the leftover Discus food and it was worrying me.
