Aquarium Advice Freak
hi guys, i bought a frog yesterday for my freshwater tank and i have bought him some frozen bloodworms. my boyfriend accidentally bought the "floating" kind, though, so i am having a LOT of trouble feeding him. last night my boyfriend thawed them out, and with the advice of the fish store man, he sucked them into a turkey baster, and spit them out near the frog... the suction on the baster didn't really work, and the TINY bit that did make it down towards the frog, he didn't seem to be interested. this morning, (i know they're nocturnal), the froggy was nipping at some tetras... i thought that he thought they were food, so i assumed he was hungry. i decided i wanted to try a different method of feeding him.. at least if it didn't work i wuoldn't have to waste his food tonight.. so i pushed the bloodworms down to the bottom of the tank and anchored them down with a rock. but the frog didn't see them! i tried to turn him in the right direction so he wouldn't have to go hungry but he wasn't interested and my other fish found them and ate most of them. does anyone have any other suggestions as to how i can feed the frog? i know i should be feeding him at night, but maybe the buoyant bloodworms are just a lost cause...?
