Getting Butterflies to Eat

[howdy20012002]

I had thought about clams
Do u break them open
Or more to the point how do u feed them to the fish

I haven't had troubles with other smaller butterflies
These ones arent even looking at the food

Edit of first post
I meant I would not normally have brought such large ones in as I do not believe they do well in captivity

Just break them open and drop them in the tank. Always worked for me.

Thanks for the input

This was the trick that I used to get my butterfly eating and quickly onto prepared food. It was pretty easy to do.
