I've been visiting PCF for a while but never posted, although this particular question has been floating around in my head for a while now.
Basically, I'm wondering what I should feed my catfish. I believe he's an Arius Graeffei as the Arius Berneyi isn't the same colour as mine.
I currently feed him a variety of what I feed my loaches and other fish but most things he won't really eat. The exception is frozen blood worms, ONE type of sinking pellet (won't touch wafers or any other type of pellet, not even bigger ones of the same type), and recently shrimp pellets.
I've read online that they eat a variety of foods, but I don't know what else to try. He doesn't touch vegetables or anything that floats, but will happily eat any fish small enough to fit in his huge gob, although about 50 feeder fish only lasted one night (that was before I knew they were a bad idea).
I was wondering, should I try shrimp? (Frozen Brine or even live shrimp) Or perhaps small crayfish?
He's been happy to eat what I have, and has quadrupled in length in the 9 months I've had him, but I thought maybe it's about time I gave him more of a choice ;)
Attached a photo of him in case I've got the wrong type.
