Problem feeding discus

I hope this can't be bad for them :D

Discus feeding...
High quality (High speed required) (http://media.putfile.com/Hand-feeding-discus-II)
Low quality (Low speed, Alternate site) (http://s8.photobucket.com/albums/a25/crazieeddie/Aquarium/Fish/?action=view&current=MVI_0004.flv)

that's pretty crazy, eddie:)

I also keep angels in my tank, as well as SAE's, but somehow the three discus that I have still hide most of the time after a month being in my tank. How long did your discus took to finally "get to know you"?

So wheres the problem?

I used to feed mine by hand but lately have just been tossing it in ........ I kinda miss doing it tho.

And people say that fish are the boring pet because you can't pet them!:huh: :rolleyes2: :inquisitive: :grin:

It actually only took a few days for the discus be hand fed. Everytime I fed bloodworms, which was their favorite, I put my hand in the tank. Eventually, they learned my hand, means BLOODWORMS. So it didn't take for them to eat from my hands.

I'm just having a hard time trying to get my clown loaches to eat from my hands.

It may turn bad if you actually do get them to eat from your hand, they will learn that driving the other fish away means more food. I've seen what that blade of them can do to soft skin;) when they get big, personally I don't want them near my fingers! I also won't be feeding by hand large saltwater tangs;) !! That reminds me that today doing a cleaning service, a large trigger wanted to bit me and a 14" Volitan Lionfish came TO CLOSE FOR COMFORT!!:mad: :fried:
