Pyjama Cardinal:

This guy just doesn't want to eat flakes of Formula One. He'll mow through frozen brine shrimp like a bulldozer, but I understand that that is not a very nutritions thing to feed. What should I try next?

Can you get frozen blood worm or frozen Krill?
These are far more nutritious. Failing that, you can always soak the brine shrimp in vitimins for a while before feeding so it deos get the nutrition it needs.

Yes, I can try those. How about frozen Formula One? Not sure how to feed this since it does not seem to want to thaw out of its little cubes....

Try Hikari brand frozen brine shrimp. They have added vitamins and minerals. Then you won't have to worry about it.

I cannot find a source for the Hikari frozen brine shrimp. The good new is that I have found the Hikari mysis shrimp, and my Cardinal will eat them. Hope he continues!

thanks,
