Those happen to be glucose strips capsules from a pharmacy, but anything similar will work. CBB's like to poke their beaks into holes. A pill bottle might work. I also used a turkey baster, when I first moved the CBB to my display tank, so I could target feed him before the other fish got the food. He soon learned to fend for himself, and is now as aggressive at feeding time as any of my fish. He does not go hungry.
