look for shrimp pellets.

Yeah ^ or some type of sinking carnivore pellet.

Also, you could use a syringe...like you can get for kids medicine and use that to squirt the blood worms directly on the bottom near the bichirs.

i was really wanting some type of sinking pellet but what would be a good one to get

 

[JustOneMore20]

Hikari makes a carnivore pellet. Chain stores like Petsmart or Petco usually carry that brand. Any brand of sinking carnivore or shrimp pellet would work.

hikari massivore is a great one.
