What do you feed your Arowanas?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I just bought some tetra cichlid jumbosticks today, trying them out, they seem to like it! Our oscars were eating them out of my fiance's hand.. and this is the first time! It was pretty cool :)
 
i tried feeding my arro pellets but i came out with no luck. so i throw in supper worms, forzen bloodworms, and the occasional feeders as a treat and to keep the hunting skills crisp.

yeah i do what i do because otherwise the fish will just eat the whole cube whole.... so i stir it around and break it up before feeding it to them....
 
I feed mine the hikari carnivorous pellets, freeze dried shrimp, and crickets. Price wise for me, shrimp is the cheapest, then crickets as I can get 1000 for 20 U.S. dollars from a cricket farm, and then those blasted expensive pellets.
 
hikari carnivore sticks, freeze dried krill, silversides, and frozen shrimp (thawed in cold water)

never knew i could do that!!! How big are the pieces you feed them? and the meat doesnt make the water cloudy??

yeah, you can feed the aro hotdogs. from what i'm told they are a supposed to be a pretty good source of protein. i think the size of your aro is gonna determine how big you cut the pieces. i have 3 aros ranging from 8" to 12" and i usually cut 1/4" slices and cut it into fours. water shouldn't get cloudy as long as you don't over feed...
 
frozen market shrimp, freeze dried krill and shrimp, hikari gold pellets, sinking carnivore, small market frogs(once)
