Default MP For Arowana

Just some doubt here, I had been starving my arowana for almost 5 days, just want to train them to take MP, can those MP be brought in the frozen dept in NTUC, Gaint, Sheng Siong where it had already been de-shell.

Can the arowana be fussy to fresh MP (which i de-shell myself) or those ready type (Frozen - for lazy ppl). Need advice.

I have try both before and surprising my previous aro knows it.

It prefer the fresh one from the market (still with shell on) then the frozen type in supermarket.

Unless it is really hungry it will reject the deshell frozen type. But this is just my aro and may not apply to other aro

1st use tap water to wash clean MP
2nd cut off the MP head and tail part then cut into smaller bite piece
3rd use small plastic bag to pack enough MP for each feeding
4th after packing MP in plastic bag can keep in freezer for few months is ok
5th each time before feeding just take out from freezer let it defrost first

For me, normally I keep with head and tail on only cut to size when wanna feed. I wonder it will stay more fresh this way?

If you are keeping mp for months, you should remove the head and without taking off the shell.
