food

I have 10 cardinal tetras and a German blue ram in a 20 gallon long that’s heavily planted. I added the tetras last week and I added the ram a few days ago. I lost two cardinal tetras today. On top of this, no one will eat. The cardinals have barley been eating at all this week but now they...

Today i bought a spotted alligator gar. I have 2 questions. 1st) how do i get my gar eat pellets. 2nd) can they live in a 200 litres pond without air pump?

i bought a p. dolloi last year and its weird how i feed it. its still alive, and healthy its not eating as much as i would want, seeing its a little one and i want to avoid stunting it. its around 15 inches now, and ive only ever seen him eat once or twice. i think he only ever does it when...

Just wondering if there is a better fish for breeding for live foods for big SA cichlids

So, I currently feed both my tanks a waaaaaaay more varied diet than I used to. Flakes, sinking pellets, Bug Bites, frozen variety pack and frozen beef heart, to be more precise. But how much variety do my fish need? I could certainly add in some actual fish like tilapia (yup, I've been...

Spill your beans (or fish food), and post your feeding schedule and what you feed. Ideally Central & SA Cichlids but also what you may have in with them. I’m new and hoping to steal some ideas and create the “ideal” diet, albeit every fish will vary. Please list your stock & tank gallons, plus...

So i was thinking of either keeping Crickets , feeder fish or something like that to keep and raise for my fish. Does anyone know whats better or how to do this? The breed them and raise them . Thanks

So I have been feeding my red dragon flowerhorn, hikari blood red parrot plus for about 2 weeks now and I can see the improvement in color clearly, but now I'm worried about feeding it over long-term since it has those color enhancing stuff. So my question is, is it healthy to feed hikari...

Although not fishing for fish, earlier this summer my local Dive Shop had a Crayfish hunt in a lake. It was really neat and I got some good footage of the adventure. Has anyone else gone SCUBA Diving to collect crayfish?

Help! My 13" Clown Knife is not eating the pellets he has been raised on. What should I do? Do I buy another brand of food? I'm at a loss here. He is housed with an Oscar, Parrot, Red Devil, Eclipse Catfish, and a Turquoise Severum.

Sup Finally managed to get this red devil I've been trying to buy for a while now from the owner of a fish shop not far from me, it was his baby but the big fella wouldn't breed with any female he offered to him so he finally sold it to me. He showed me the weird Asian pellet food he feeds it...

Hello, I'm new to this site so thanks in advance for any help/ advice. My green terror has been ill for some time now. He stopped eating maybe 6-8 months ago and was pooping white. i moved him to quarantine and treated him with general cure. He finally started eating again at which time I...

Hello, About 3 weeks ago I purchased a 6-8" Fire Eel. I am concerned because I have never seen him eat. I've provided a number of foods (listed below) but have not actually seen him consume anything. Is there a way to determine if he is actually eating? Food I've provided: - frozen Blood...

In this professionally filmed, and produced short film, I introduce the viewer to a simple and inexpensive brine shrimp hatchery. For those of you who are not familiar with this creature, newborn brine shrimp are an essential, easy to raise, and very nutritious live food item for newborn fish...

One of the best ways to improve the growth rate of newborn fish is to give them ample supplies of healthy live foods. Microworms are a great choice for feeding small fry. These roundworms are a free-living (non-parasitic) nematode that is also known as the sour paste nematode. They are very easy...

One of the easiest ways to improve the growth rate of newborn fish is to give them ample supplies of healthy live foods. However, most live food cultures can be difficult to keep going over the long run. One exception is the vinegar eel. These creatures are incredibly easy to raise and feed to...

Has anyone here ever fed their mosquito larvae to their Betta ? They love it, and it's fun to watch them chasing the larvae all around the tank. I put out several containers of water in a shady area near my home every year to allow mosquitos to lay their eggs in the water. I check it everyday...

1. Has anyone done this and know if it extends shelf life or if it shouldn't be in the fridge? 2. How long past expiration date can you keep feeding massivore? If anyone has knowledge about this particular thing perhaps with the producers of Hikari, your feedback is welcome and thanks ahead of...
