    actually , what I meant to say : the fry eat more B/H diet than the adults do.
    I will feed one gram of B/H to an adult and he seems satisfied.

    I will feed one gram of B/H to a fry ... and they still want more.

    Mind you; the fry seem to eat anything that hits the tank.
    The adults eat everything, but they seem to become full and satisfied. Maybe it's good table manners ?

    Smokey,

    It's early days yet but they are all eating it. The adults reluctantly however the youngest of my adults ate beefheart in his youth so he takes to it much more easily than the rest. But they will come around.

    The babies are fighting over it which is a good thing! initially when i baught them there was one that was really small compared to the rest, however after 4 weeks of good food and care I can't even tell which one he is! he's grown! I attribute that to his good food.

    Thanks for asking! This is by far the best batch of beefheart I have ever made. It even makes great berly for fishing! ;D

    I have often thought of the same idea. When I was out at the west coast, I would use liver for shark fishing. Worked every time. lol...

    However, Southern Alberta is no - bait. Mind you , I am a fly fisherman. So, I just tie my flys to look like beefheart. lol....

    I have noticed, fry grow really fine !!!!
    My aussies have been on a beefherat diet almost since day one. They have gorwn up real fine .
