I have a Sunshine pleco and a Leopard cactus pleco, both about 6". I've been trying to feed them Repashy omnivore paste, but they won't eat it.

I've been trying for a week now and haven't fed them anything else, but they just ignore it. My other fish go crazy for it though. I have geos and an African arowana and they jump on it right when it hits the water.

What should I do to get them to eat the Repashy?
 
Why don't you throw in some other food such as Blood Worms and Brine Shrimp? Also try TetraMin flakes.
 
Ive never tried feeding mine with repashy, you should give them some shrimp or massivore before they starve to death or maybe the other fish eats allthe food before they could get to it?

I tried giving them massivore and shrimp and they wont eat those either. For now, they just eat bloodworms. The Sunshine also eats zucchini. I didn't knowbitbwoukd be this hard to train them to eat other foods.
 
I drop repashy into my tanks every other day and I don't think my adonis pleco eats it at all, at least I've never seen him eat it. I use the meat eater gel food. I was thinking of trying their "Morning Wood" formula, which is made for plecos specifically, but I am hesitant to try it if he won't even eat this one. The cory cats and jack dempsys love it though as do all the shrimp.
