my gluttonous bichir

[nitrofish1]

one of my three bichir last night grabbed the entire bloodworm cube and ran off with it. tried to eat so much of it that the bloodworms were stuck in between his gill plates, and the other bichir proceeded to grab the worms in his plates and eat them as he tried to swim off from that lol.

mine have done exactly the same.

that is sooo greedy but so sweet to see!

I recommand thrawing the blood worms first and use a tweezer to feed them if you want to moderate how much bloodworm each bichir should get

 

[putra]

can somebody post a pic of tweezer here?

i find whats best is to let the entire cube thaw, so that one bichir does not inhale the half thawed cube in its entirety.

I just refuse to feed bloodworms.
Pump them up with pellets and shrimp!

it's hard to find carnivore pellets here..
you're lucky my friend..
