100% Superworm diet

[Luohan Ranger]

Hi

Does anyone feed 100% main staple super worm to Arowana? Any other problem beside PA? How about growth and color?

I've heard different comments on feeding SW.. Some people say the arowana will get hooked to eating live food. Others say no issue with longterm feeding..

Probably depends on the arowana itself. But 100% SW, that one I dunno advisable or not. Might be lacking in certain vitamins maybe? Also depends on how you are going to be gut loading the SW I suppose.

It is always good to feed a variety of diet eg MP,pellets,frogs or SW...some aros are not fussy and can rotate from one diet to another easily while others cannot. SW is good for building mass but side effects are PA and yr aro might not accept other food if fed solely on SW.

Mine aro only like SW, of course I can try to starve it but again I believe will disturb the growth. I not sure what u all think

Yr aro is kept alone or in a comm? Higher chance to convert to other food if in a comm because of competition.

Another disadvantage of feeding live food is the presence of parasites.
