Well he's a pure A. citrinellum from wild parents - so F1.
He's not a female - so I think that makes him male.
And he came from Jeff Rapps.

haha. funny. still am a fan of this guy..my midas was the same way, cept now all he will eat is pellets, nothing else seems to interest him. At least it is pellets, but it has taken me a while. Good luck MM
how else would he describe him? hes just stating where he got him from and what his pedigree is so that we know it is a pure midas, since most "midas" from petstores are mixes you can't know that you have a pure specimen unless you get it from a reputable breeder like rapps100gallons;4166921; said:
Finally saw him eat a pellet today. He proceeded to chew it for 25 minutes. This leads me to a couple thoughts.
1) He has a physical problem eating. Which leads to the next.
2) The pellets I feed are either to large (they're pretty small) or to hard for him to eat.
So I need some suggestions for some soft pellets. Small and soft would be best. Slow sinking maybe?

doin good, in a 180 with all my other fish. first few days she? was ms badass but now there all getting along. argentea is doin great as well.
have you tried soaking the pellets in a cup of tank water first? i did this with my GTs for a little while when they weren't eating like they were supposed to and it helped a bit. as for a soft pellet, the jumbo cichlid sticks are fairly soft and you can just give them a squeeze as you drop them into the tank and they soak up water really well
