Fluffy ate all dead today :)

Annie742 · 04-08-2006, 11:50 PM

I fed Fluffy and all I fed him was the shrimp and guppys "dead ones".
He didn't even hesitate this time, he just flew into them and they were gone. No live ones at all this time

He seems to know this is his food now.
Next few days I'll be trying different kinds of marine foods that are good for him.

Just wanted to thank you all that helped me

I almost was at the point of taking him back to the petstore as I was getting really frustrated!! Again I'm really happy to have found this place!!!

Great job. I know it was a little difficult at first but it seems the challenge was deffinately worth it. I don't think you'll have problems introducing new foods now, but like you said it's best you go slowly.

are you feeing it freshwater or saltwater feeders?

Annie742 · 04-15-2006, 09:30 AM

He is eating guppys and freshwater ghost shrimp. Dead ones now.
He did eat a frozen krill yesterday. He ain't liking it much but he is getting there. It's taking him a while to switch over from fresh to salt but it's going along pretty good I think.
