I feed mine with live white worms once a day and she's growing bigger and fatter. She's just a little bably but growing fast on that diet. She was so tiny when I got her, less than one inch and now she's doubled in size at least.

I have mine for 2 months, feeding her once a day during the week and twice a day during weekend. She is doing very well on white worms diet. The live white worms and fish roe are the only things she eats. I tried cyclopeeze, PE mysis and she won't eat that.

She's not aggressive when it comes to feeding and hangs out on the sidelines when I feed.

What are some other food options I can try? I've thought about moving her to the other tank but don't want to stress her either as she's so thin, but I think the fish in the other tank would be better mates. Thoughts?

I'm going to see what I can find now. She wasn't out when I left this morning, but I usually don't see her get up until later in the day.

I think the soaked in "Welcome" is Selcon - gotta love spell check.

Don't waste your money with Selcon. This is the quality of the Selcon after this bottle didn't get moved around for 1 month and the actual "fat" content is 1/10 of the bottle. I felt really ripped off with the quality that I used to believe its "very nutritional" for your fish.
What a joke !

Well I'm not sure where to get live white worms from, oceans and golds don't carry them. She ate tonight, both frozen and pellets and was in with the other fish eating, and not spitting it out. I dropped extra pellets on the sand as she picking them out.

I don't think the net trick will work to catch her and as soon as I dropped the baster in she swam away. If I can get her out I was thinking even the sump for a while so no competing with anyone.

Where can I get roe from?
