    Default Beefheart Blackworms?

    So to make a long story short I spent over $20 on cubes of freeze dried beef heart black worms and my discus won't touch them with a 10 foot pole no lie! They eat Hans cobalt flakes on the regular along with beef heart and pellets. Purchased from Aquatic Foods Suggestions?

    Discus are picky eaters. When introducing new food it takes patience and perseverance. If you stick with it eventually they will adjust.

    In the future consider ordering from Al. Discus go crazy for his foods and why not help support the forum at the same time

    You could make your own beef heart mix and put the worms in it

    Al imports his blackworms from Australia (Aquatic Suppliers.)

    Dan's blackworms are local (California) Aquatic Foods.

    Ok I see! I was really confused for a minute. I did semi starve them for a day and I stuck a half a cube on the glass and two of them went nuts over it so it's good to finally see them eating them. Don't wanna put you on the spot but out of those two which are better? Thx
