Anyone ever order from fishonlinerus.com
He's got some polli bichirs available. Just no experience with him.

Never order from them but i check the polli and looks good, except the wild caught koliba that is actually a cb if you base it with the picture they have.
Yeah...with shipping at the WS it would come to a 90-100 bucks for that fish. with this guy it would end up being 55. I'll see if I can get him to get some albino senegals too. That would make the hit a little easier to take if i'm buying 2.
Hmm...well i thought i had successfully gotten my ropefish to eat hikari carnivore pellets. Alas I was wrong. I've been soaking them in bloodworm juice for a couple of weeks now and either he ignores them completely or gnaws on it a little and spits it out.
Starting to think i may need to consider doing some form of frozen/live food as a staple. Thoughts on getting redworms/earthworms at the bate shop and freezing them and feeding?

Not that you want him on live constantly, but wiggling little worms usually trigger feeding in picky fish the best. The other thing is to try night feeding. Just put in a pile of tilapia cut up to bite sized for the rope after lights are out.
If you havent tried it yet please do. Just cant be the only thing it eats. Keep trying the other stuff too. Fatten him up on tilapia then give a few days and try some pellet again. Also try breaking the carnivore pellets in to 3 smaller pieces.
