ask Dustin what he was feeding them and try to feed them the same food. That's weird that they wont eat bloodworms...its like cocain for fish.If it ain't wild caught
You ain't doing it rightComment

No more blood worms. You have got to understand why they are'nt eating. I would feed very lightley. They maybe sick. Like MB said feed the same as HAW. Clout or Metro will cure them if you do not let it go on. You need to STOP this now or it's going to be to late. Do not want to alarm you but everyday is criticle now. Good luck!200

I'm pretty sure Dustin feeds Tetra Colorbits and bloodworms. I'm not sure if the peacocks get bloodworms or not.
Are they even acting interested in the food at all? Like, are they acting hungry? Hiding? Active or Not active? Are they spitting the food?
These details will help determine if it's just an adjustment period, a dislike of the food, or if they are sick.Our Fishhouse

I have tried jungle parasite. It works but not effective as clout for just treating bloat. I would take Gene up on his offer.Originally posted by herefishyfishy View Post
