Osirus got a pinky

[John911]

Went to pick up my pixies today and decided to grab a pinky for my ornate to try. He had 2 crickets running around his tank when I got home so I thought he might not be hungry. I put the pinky by him anyway because I had no idea what else to do with it(it was in a paper bag). I poked it toward him and it sort of rolled onto his head and then off. Then osirus did what he does best. Here's the vid. I missed the initial grab.

Nice looking Ornate. We have similar water fish

I fed my guys pinkies for the first time the other day as well.

How much should they be eating? Mine eats about 3-5 crickets a day, hes already had a pinky too and gobbled that no problem! x

For juveniles pretty much what you're doin. We do crickets about every day and plan on a pinky maybe once a month. Might try dubia roaches soon too.

dubias are expensive... maybe when i get a couple more frogs i'll breed them but, until then- crickets and worms

Eeewww! Crickets and locous are bad enough let alone breeding roaches ! Although i do like the domino roaches, they are quite cute.
I mite get some worms for him, he wld love them! Do you guys just buy them in pet shops where you wld get your crickets?
