So I give-up and give him crickets again............he's really a crickets lover...........

Crickets have always been a cursed food, once fed.. aro accepts nothing else..
I tried starving mine for 6 full weeks before starts to eat MP again.. probably can try again?

Incredible red!

Yes agree with you...........crickets is very additive..........
about trying again......maybe someday.........my concern is the fish is almost 2 years old and it really takes time to change the habbit of an old fish.........
