My Pacu is going NUTS

[komodo182]

both of those fish contain thiamin (rosy reds and goldfish)...That may be the problem

my thoughts.
They contain thiaminase (destroys thiamine)
I have a turtle that I took in that was feed rosies and goldfish for about 8 years or so and I think he has a problem. Never met a turtle like him. I think he has some neural issues and i think your pacu does as well.

Just my thoughts at least

No.. you shouldn't feed them to your fish.

 

[briandmer]

[briandmer]

I am getting the big gar in the am and they only eat feeders so help me out. I WILL be putting him in my big tank, So any expert help would be great.

 

[mshill90]

I don't feed my fish live feeders- but you can try feeder guppies, danios, and maybe even minnows.
