hi i'm new to this thread maybe this have been discussed before, but due to my recent aqusition of a 7inch heckellis, really excited in pumping the fish.

I feed it hikari lionhead sinking pellets currently, but realise it is not very responsive to the pellets although it did nibble on them. Besides green peas, what other food do you usually feed to EEs?

They take basically anything bro....from MP, to pellets, to ....anything meaty? Only thing is they dun eat plants. Other than that, anything goes. As long as u feed regularly, and with a variety, sure fat.
