Every fish I've had and have are obsessed with Bloodworms.

 

[aspear]

how big are bloodworms?

 

[benzjamin13]

If you buy them frozen, they come in a flat block or cubes (which I use). They're not big. I have a 4" Del that eats a cube to itself.

alright, blood worms it is i guess, any other info would still be helpful

Also try cut pieces of Shrimp. My Del loves that I had 2 Dels before. For some reason, I have had a hard time keeping more than one Poly. One always seems to develop health issues while all the other fish remain healthy Anyways...just try a variety. You should be able to find something.

My poly's love frozen mysis shrimp, beefheart, and hikari carnivore pellets

you could try brine shrimp, but if you just got him i would wait a couple of days. he may just need to acclamate to the tank. hate for you to waste money on all different kinds of foods if you dont need to

Depending on their size, try cutting up pieces of MP or some sinking pellets. Bloodworms will get expensive when they get bigger.

i feed hikari carnivore, bloodworms and occasionally beefheart and salmon pellets, but bloodworms are definately a favorite in my my tank
