	What else to feed BGK?
luisprado Hobbyist Posts: 81 Kudos: 156 Votes: 5 Registered: 02-Jun-2004	I have a BGK that I acquired when he was about 3". Now he is approx. 8". I am wondering if there is something else I can feed him besides the live bloodworms I feed him now. It seems it just isn't enough anymore. He recently started going after my neon tetras. Can I feed him beef heart or some other feed that he might take a liking to? Thanks. [span class="edited"][Edited by luisprado 2004-08-11 10:17][/span]

That's just naming a few You may have to try several of those to find what your BGK likes and some times their tastes change as they get older too so keep varying the diet to keep him/her interested

You can also look into other frozen foods for variation from time to time. Also might want to give your neons a quickie lesson on why they might want to avoid the giant fish that hides most of the day... PM/email/msg me if you have any questions/comments regarding me or my knowledge or if you want me to read a thread.
