Hey everyone, I`m new around here and figure I should introduce myself. I`ve been keeping fish for I guess about 8 years now though lately I`ve been focusing more on plants than livestock.

I recognise a few friendly faces which is nice, and I hope to learn a bundle as well as contribute from time to time.

Does ur African butterfly eat flake or other prepared foods. I've always had trouble getting them to eat anything other than live foods.

He's a tricky one. He'll eat some frozen mysis shrimp if he's hungry. He'll eat FD Plankton as long as you can drop it in next to his nose. If he gobbles it up before he notices it wasn't kicking, you're golden. If he knows it's already dead, it's just floating pollution. :(

Small crickets he loves. I like feeding the darn house flies that bug me at night. :twisted:

I just got some confused flour beetles from aquabid since winter is at our doorstep. I'll see how he likes those.
