In the past, I've always fed him silversides. He just won't eat anything but my cleanup crew anymore. I've tried cochels, sand eels, raw shrimp, and cuttlefish. Does anyone have any suggestions? This is getting expensive!

Have you tried krill, muscles, clams? Also try some fish filets from the grocery store.

I feed shrimp to mine.....ummm, crabs and such are his natural diet, so you can give up on havving any really. Perhaps if you kept him fed alot he won't look at the much tastier live food, but heavy feeding could mess with water quality. Crustaceans are his natural diet, and his blunt teeth are made for cracking shells.

Thats why I don't feed mine shrimp, not only is he scared of them, but thats a good thing. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D
