I started feeding my jar pellets at 2.5 inches.It took a lil while for the lil fella to get used to,he would regurgitate @ first then i starve him for half a day and started eating it with no problems.Now he eats pellets and dried krill and dried blood worms as a part of his diet.
For whatever reason, my 6 in aro prefers flakes over pellets atm, lol. I have'nt tried cutting up the pellet yet and I'm thinking that the size might be the reason so I'll cut it up and see what happens. I'm using Hikari Cichlid Gold though because I liked the results from feeding it to my oscar. For anyone who uses the same food, Is it just me or do the pellets smell like beef jerky? lol, temped to lick one and see what it tastes like.
