What will a 6" knife eat?

[mercury904]

I would train it to eat pellets so that way when he gets bigger you wont be spending that much money on food for him. I have trained my clown knife to eat everything even earth worms.

he is right! I have a terrible experience on this...

my 8" royal clown knife eats whitebait,shrimp/prawn,cockles and earthworms(nightcrawlers) i'm sure with time it will eat pellets also

you know i just started digging a new garden and the earthworms were popping up all over..and i thought about my CK and then didn't do it.. but next time i am out there{next few days snow showers} i will give my CK a worm..

I changed my mind on the earthworms.. i just read a story on feeding earthworms and they said in this book you should not do it.. too many pesticides and insecticides in the soil.. even if you do not spray yourself your environment is filled with it and the wind brings it into even the most unlikely places..any way all it would take is the wrong earthworm and you would have a sick or dead fish.. so i will just give him some other treat since i be sooooo upset if anything happened to my CK..

DOnt be cheap and dig them up in a lawn or garden that has chemicals in it, and buy the worms from a business that perfected the way of harvesting healthy earthworms.. Ive been feeding them to everything i own for years now, not one problem... But hey do what u gotta do.
