Papagoomba Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 Any one have any ideas on how to get my pea puffers to eat frozen blood worms? Currently they seem to only want to eat the snails that i have and bbs. I have 6 in my 29 gallon and there is 1 that will come up and eat 1 blood worm but the rest just dont even look at it.

Atitagain Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 I thaw mine in a bit of tank water in cup. Then use a turkey baster, they love it. I have 3 pea puffers and they all eat it fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jennifer V Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 I've found that using tweezers and wiggling them in the water or moving them back and forth like they're alive stimulates the peas and makes them more interested than just dropping the worms in the tank.

Papagoomba Posted December 23, 2021 Author Share Posted December 23, 2021 UPDATE: Did the tweezer trick once and now they love them. All i have to do is drop it in now and they go after it. think they just needed to get the taste for them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
