[civickid]

i have a 6 month old bamboo and i got him from the fish store a week ago and he wont eat krill. He goes crazy over ghost shrimp but when i put krill in his face he backs off. What is wrong with him or what can i feed him that is frozen thatnk

My advise would be to try some fresh seafood from the store. It always seemed to get a good response from all of my new additions. Soak it in a multi or another attractant and try it for 2-3 days. Be patient and see what happens.

what kind of fresh seafood works the best for a bamboo do you think

 

[gasguzzler]

The 2 biggest hits in my tank are scallop and shrimp. They also enjoy clam, squid, haddock strips and other marine fish.

my shark ate a peice of krill today i was giving him ghost shrimp and i fed him with a stick and then put some krill on the stick and he ate it thanks for the help everyone.

now he wont eat it anymore. what is wrong with him. Should i try to get some squid from the store tomm or just keep giving him ghost shrimp which is kinda expensive

As I have said before, try some fresh seafood from the store. This is the closet thing to the food he would have in the wild. Use the instincts to work for you!

i went to the store and got come crab and i put it in his face and he didnt even move for it. So i went to the fish store and got some squid and he ate the whole cube so hopfully he keeps eating it .
