I think I'm just lucky because this guy will eat almost everything except for spectrum pellets and flake food. He didn't eat for the first week that I had him though because he was too busy cleaning my rocks of the feather duster plague. After he ran out of natural food he got more interested. Also he wouldn't eat much except for garlic soaked mysis for the first two weeks.. he had to be slowly introduced to everything over time. He's still one of the finicky fish I have as the others seem to be bottomless pits and this CBB will stop eating when he's full.

Can you give me a brand name for the bloodworms? With the garlic, I didn't persist with it. Maybe if I starved him for a day or two, he might start taking it. Because he won't eat pellets or flake food like the other fish, I am concerned he might be lacking some vitamins.
