My Asian Red Tail Cat! Not feeding much? give him time?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
They're a great fish, and my favorite. Got mine a year ago at 2.5-3" for 6.99. Now he's just over a foot, and he eats everything. there are other fish in the tank that only eat live so i have never gotten mine off from live completely. Mine eats Massivore delite, cichlid pellets, feeders, worms, beef heart, shrimp.
 
Yah some are hard to get off live feeders. luckly mine already ate freeze-dried and from my hand on the first day. It sounds like you got one of the ones that are really hard to get off feaders I know a 2' one at my LFS who only eats feeders:( I agree with the first few post try guppies or the earthworms are even better and safer.
 
Mine eats Prawns, mealworm, crickets and cichlid pellets. He will not tolerate any tankmates and has killed some nice fish. Hence he is for sale.
