TatertTot:
I got a lil blond miurus about a week ago. At 1st I was really glad I didn't pay for it, because she was fins & bones--looked like death. I really didn't think she'd make it a day. She had only been eating GF & I refused to feed them to her. I soaked blackworms in Jungle parasite treatment & fed the medicated worms to guppies & fed the guppies to her for 4 days. She really didn't seem to be eating much, so I treated the water too for good measure but I don't know if that helped, since FW fish don't drink water. She seemed to be a bit more active & I've been offering her blackworms & earthworms for a week but today is the 1st time I've seen her eat an earthworm! She's filling out nicely & even has a little paunch on her now. After she's been eating those for a week, I'm gonna try to get her on dead foods.
Someone's really worm-obsessed!
Not skinny anymore!
