MASSIVORE PELLETS!

[dreamandscheme]

i was thinking mass. for the exo's but now i think i'll stick to blood worms and brine shrimp.

And I was thinking of training my fish to take pellets through massivore....

Tank is in my bedroom by the way.

I got my tank in my room too ark, and I learned that the trick is to start off with very very little, like a single pellet, to see if your fish eat it.

once they start taking it, start adding a few pellets more each feeding until they start leaving a pellet or two uneaten so you can take it out right away.

I know my fish will eat about half a handful quick status, so they never allow any of the massivore to be exposed to water enough to make the rancid smell, unless I screw up and feed right before lights out.

holy crap i moved my tank into my bedroom on Saturday and everything went well. tossed a few massivore pellets in last night and way laying in bed and the smell hit me.. didnt know what it was but i was not happy about it at all. could not figure it out.. i bet i would have kept feeding them heavy for a while before i figured it out.. thanks for the heads up so i know to keep the massivore down and feed more carnovor pelets

massivore is a fantastic food for bichir's.... way better then live.... but variety is key in any fishes diet.. i feed 75% massivore
who cares if it smells... my bichirs and ray are worth it...


anyways i have an air diffuser .......

i smell nothing......... NOTHING!!!

My albino algae eater has been cleaning up leftovers. He even charges the bichir (5" sen) sometimes to get at the massivore. I have not noticed a smell but I live with 2 stinky cats and a dobie.
80 gal fluval 404 with surface skimmer attachment

PS got a worm bin for composting and feed the bichir the worms on occasion, along with invasive apple moths I find in the apartment.

Not much of an issue with Senagals as they get to the food very fast unlike it's cousins.

I got an Ornate , Delhezi , Endli , and a Senegal. I starved them for a week they all pretty much ate massivore dipped in silverside oil lol . Now the only one that eats them is the Ornate bichir strangely enough. I never noticed any odor from them but I always run 300 grams of matrix carbon changed every month.

so it smells a bit,it goes away in a few hours.What a bunch of Mary's,j/k.

LOL Seriously, open the window and it goes away. I have my tank in the house, and, after I feed, we can smell it through the entire place. But, I'd rather have a bunch of really healthy, happy fish. Besides, it's not that bad. That is until a pellet gets wet and rots between the glass lid and edge. Ewww... that was pretty bad, but not typical.

u 2 are girls u have nothing to fear unlike us men lol
