First 4 months feeding: 8 Crickets AM, 4 SW Afternoon, 8 Cr/Sw PM...daily

Last 2 months(10 to 14 in): Frog AM, 15-18 Crickets PM

Haven't been able to switch her to MPs and afraid of starving her out because I have other fish that seems to get along with her in the tank.

So I say feed her as much as she wants at this stage, keep water pristine and see how it goes, when she hits that 12 to 14 in mark, I would start adjusting her diet. Variety helps...

How big is your system?

S
at last someone's aro eat as much as mine... lol... main diet is baby frogs, sometimes will give some prawn meat and ghost shrimp.

noticed usually after ghost shrimp, he will then skip baby frogs for 1 feeding session

6x2.5x2 with tankmates

Aside to Harry,

Thanks so far he does not really stop just less enthusiastic about the frogs. That's when i stop feeding... maybe he not full yet lol
