L264 Sultans diet

[thefredpit]

I recently got ahold of a L264 Sultan and while trying to figure out what to feed him and I'm finding very conflicting info

Pleco Planet says they are a carnivore

whereas Planet Catfish says they are a herbivore

besides flakes the tank gets bloodworms, brine shrimp, krill, beafheart, earthworms, tilapia, carnivore pellets, cichlid gold sinking pellets and green beans (not all at the same time)

Omnivores. We give our leporacanthicus shrimp, fish fillet, as well as peas zucchini, lettuce, etc.

I've been bitten by a 264 and a heterodon. Those are meat eating teeth. Lol

They are adapted to eat snails as well.
