Best Pellet Food For Senegalus Birchir?

[Liam50]

hey
basically i have a 6 inch birchir and i have this carnivore tablets made by hikari but i never see him eating them. when i feed the tank prawns i see him really scoffing his face and i was just wondering is their any pellet food that really will suit this fish as i found that the senegalus isn't as much as a meat eater as ornates or others.

I have two dinosaur bichirs (I have seen others call them senegalus so I'm assuming their the same) and they refused to eat any type of pellet that was to big to fit in my goldfish mouths. ( my bichirs are around 4 maybe 4 1/2 inches and have much bigger mouths than the goldfish they are only 2 inches long) But go nuts over bloodworms and minos, finished 20 in 2 nights.

But from my expirence they all have their different taste in foods you might just need to keep trying different kinds until you find the one he likes most. They wont eat if they dont like the food. I know mine wont, they can be very stubborn sometimes!
