someone on this forum (not sure if its true) told me that having fish as a main diet isnt a good idea. With my frog, he cant catch anything for the life of him. so maybe one out of 15 fish get eaten within a week or so. I force them in front of him and he grabs them that way, but, being a college student, i sometimes dont have time to do this.

I find it very hard to find nutritious food for my ACF at a lot of petstores around here. I did find tonight some fortified bloodworms in a flat pack. Bloodworms are necisarilly used for treats, but the person at the petstore said that since its got the vitamins in it it should be okay for regular feeding. Elmo (my ACF) is getting too old for the little tadpole/frog bites. he needs bigger meals and something a little more substantial for his diet then fish all the time. He seems very partial to live food. He spits out the shrimp pellets i drop in front of him....what a picky eater! Anyway, i appreciate your reply.
