I'm curious about what everyone feeds their polys
make a list of what you feed yours(truthful)
if its pellets,what kind?
if its fish filets,what type of fish?
etc etc etc

i just fed mine and was wondering what everyone feeds theirs to bulk them up



i feed fish filets
halibut
rock cod
lingcod
beefheart
goldfish once in a while

:popcorn:
 
Mine are only 3-4" so I feed them bloodworms, beefheart, and earthworms. As they get bigger, they'll probably get some livebearers as feeders.
 
Worms and Hik. Pellets
 
Cichlid gold

cichlid bio gold

cichlid gold sinking (both sizes)

raw shrimp

earthworms (an infrequent treat)

I used to feed the earthworms more often, but they're expensive and my laps didn't want to eat anything else, so now all my bichirs mainly get pellets,but shrimp every few days for variety.

The pellet foods really have all the protein and vitamins though.
 
aro sticks
ghost shrimp
chicken heart
dried shrimp
earthworms (rarely)
