My midas DIablo is a bit of a picky eater. He used to love frozen bloodworms and then started to boycott them and switched to loving pellets. Now he has decided to turn his nose up at both. He has also had appx 6 feeder fish friends hanging out with him for a few months because he refused to eat them as well. Within the last two weeks he changed his mind and sucked 4 of them down but is now refusing pellets and bloodworms. Water parameters are good, the tank is clean and I think he is a bit of a prima donna who is mad that he's not getting enough attention. Does anyone have any suggestions for a new food to try to see if maybe he just got bored with the Hikari floating pellets?Diablo.jpg

A fish that size can go without eating for 3 weeks easy. Just give him pellets for those 3 weeks, eventually he will eat.

You could try New Life Spectrum Floating (3mm) or Paradigm Omnivore.

my fish started becoming picky and I switched foods and they cannot get enough of this stuff. They have also beefed up quite a bit . I feed them the monster xtreme pellet. The largest ones I can get. they love them !!
