Ive had my CK for about 2 months now i was just curious if anyone has had success feeding there knife pellets or any other kind of food and had good luck cause so far mine has only eaten live feeders, blackworm, bonito, and occasional squid. Any suggestions?
 
Yes, I've had success with pellets. I didn't really do anything, just threw the pellets in. It ate them eventually. There might be some resistance at first, but hunger will out eventually.
 
My CK is a hungry MFkER
There isn't nothing he won't eat
 
Many have had success getting their Knives onto prepared foods. Do you have any other fish with your CK? I find that they will not eat right away. They will observe other fish eating and come to the realization that whatever the other fish are eating is edible.
 
I have a baby 3" CK, it eats everything, shrimp pellets, slow sinking cichlid pellets, tropical flake, Frozen Spirilina Brine Shrimp, Frozen Blood Worms, a tiger barb...
 
My CK eats hikari carnivore sinking pellets only. I got him at 3 inches and put him on the pellet diet from the get go. Now he won't eat anything else I put in the tank save the carnivore pellets.
