over here in manila we have both feeder goldfish and katabas (mosquito fish) that are usually used for feeders.. katabas are cheaper and are the ones mostly use.. i usually only feed them to my very stubborn fish that don't want to eat frozen foods (indo tiger and peacock bass).. i've been trying for ages but these 2 just wont budge

true....anchor worms are regulars with goldfishes.... i make sure i quarantine all my feeders b4 i feed them to my fishes....

nice auranti's you got there .. have you tried frozen foods on them yet? i hoping when i get mine, they would quickly take shrimp and other frozen foods..

I hear ya there. I am lucky that my big Peacock bass eats Pellets and only pellets. He wotn take anything else. Maybe the occasional feeder and tank mate.

how did you get yours to eat pellets? mine is very stubborn.. i've managed to use the splash technique to eat dilis (anchovies) but after the first one he sort of wises up and wait to see if the one i trow is moving or not and then hits it when he's sure is live

btw: sorry for the slight derailed topic..

Jack - i know bro! You shouldve held on to it. Theyre hard to come by at those size. True Monsters!!


Kido- when i was a kid , i used to buy feeder guppies.. they were sold by the bagfuls.
I believe they called it "isdang kanal"? (LOL) are those the same as the mosquito fish you described? Sorry to derail!
