Ok so I have a new datnoid and a 13 in arowana. I've been wondering war would be the best way in going about this. I need to feed the datnoid live Prey because I can't get him to eat anything else. The arowana I just don't want him to die of a disease. But what would be safer to feed them ghost shrimp or rosy reds.? I've had othe fish I used to feed just feeders and one time I guess I fed my fish a bad one and they all died :( my poor jack dempsey rip :(. So obviously I don't want anyone dead this time dies any one have any imput to help me with this problem of mine?

What kind of datnoid is he? is he a indo or at(silver)? He will give in evenutally, when he is hungry he will trust me. If its a NTT, its much harder. Please dont feed your fish live, its just not worth it unless your breeding them, and breeding costs a lot more money on the run. If as of right NOW you neeed to fatten the guy up and than want to starve the guy till he eats pellets or frozen, than your best option would be ghost shrimps and earthworms.
 
Walmart has the cheapest and largest earthworms. Good luck, GET THEM OFF the LIVE. My first indo, 2 inchs went straight from pellets the first time i got him, grew 2 - 2 and half inches in less than 1 and a half month. THATS THE GREAT wonders of pellets lol
 
Have you tried feeding it massivore? That is all my NGT datnoid eats and im trying to get the rest if its tank mates to eat the same, so far my puffer liked it .
