It's a good sign that he will take them if you keep trying. You can also try to soak the pellet before you give it to him. Make sure you keep him fed while you're trying.

Is there by any chance that i can get my 3" mono on baby hikari Pellets? becuase buying guppies are getting pretty expensive.. if there is no way , can i starve him and feed him pellets?

i think we have been here before......>>> your memory has been refreshed ^^^<<<

Cichla are Piscavores and should be fed accordingly until; in my opinion from my experience and learnign from others, at least 6". though I have experimented as well.. Azoo arowana sticks were easy for me and they stay together better that anyother sticks i've used..

You bought a fish that requires experience and patience for it to thrive. And A willingnes to take care of them...

Training can take more than a month. And also requires live food as a piece of the training.. you could also starve them.. Some may die some may cross over to the food of your choice. it is up to you.Starving does not garauntee success, but has been for people in the past. Myself included with certain species.


My question is why do you own cichla? And is it worth keeping RIGHT or should you go a different direction just some food for thought. As the pay off in cichla is a beautiful thing.

Buying food should be a happy thing. if not then maybe you have the wrong fish

(tongue) sorry i just had to use your expertise and refresh this guys memory....
