bloodworms

[Nicki Sinclair]

Do goldfish eat blood worms?
Do they enhance color?

Thanks,

I read somewhere that using dark-colored gravel enhances their color as they grow (because they adapt to their surroundings?)
I wonder if that is why fish stores use dark colored gravel.

Really?
My Betta is kinda picky, but if he likes something, he will eat a lot of
it! I've had to try to cut back on his feedings while still trying to
feed enough for the snails.

My betta is obese. :-P

Am thinking about trying peas for the snails as I don't think the Betta
will eat them.

That's a good idea, thanks!
The betta never eats off of the floor.

Bloodworms are his favorite food! The snails really like them too. :-)

Funny how the same species of fish can vary from individual to
individual......

My betta also likes flakes and the floating betta pellets.

When i tried to feed Phantom flake he literally turned his nose up at
them....
But he likes to "feed" squishy my snail...or i think thats what he does...he
picks up the food and swims it down to the snail....very odd i know....but
its happening all the time now!

At least you have named your Betta. ;-)
I've been tossing around ideas but have not settled on one yet...

That is neat behavior! Any chance at taking a picture of it???

<lol> Macro with auto-focus if you can get thru the glass...
It's a real trick! I took some fish pics at the pet store the other day
but have not processed them yet. I think some are going to be pretty
good. I wanted them for photoshopping!

My bettas eat baby snails, which is fine because they reproduce so often!
