feeding mono argentus

[cdawson]

I'm curious what others feed their mono argentus? I feed mine brine shrimp, they don't tend to like the blood worms I feed my puffers or the marine algae. I have some krill, but I'm left with no one to feed it. Will they eat it and what else will they eat?

My Monos will eat just about anything. They eat flakes, freeze dried Ocean Plankton, Frozen Brine, Frozen Bloodworms, Formula One, and Live Brine. Hope this helps.

yeah, i don't think I've found a food the Mono's WON'T eat!

I just switched them over to marine pellets and flakes instead of the FW stuff... it was on sale, but is there any benifit in feeding the marine variety? ie more protein?

There is probably SOME protien but most all of the flakes available are the same thing. The companies that make the flakes produce so many different varieties so they can sell more product. So if you have South American Cichlids you will buy Freshwater Flakes and Cichlid Flakes. I feed frozen Formula One since it works wonders with my saltwater fish so figure it will help the Monos. Agreed upon what monos won't eat.
