They can last that long without eating.Anybody have any luck with freeze dried blackworms? I've had my CBB for about 11 days now, still haven't actually seen him eat. I'm giving him mysis, brine and clams but not sure if he's eating. He's swimming around and looks good, maybe a bit thin. After this amount of time he has to have been eating something, right? Or could he last this long without eating?
Freeze fried blackworms will not work long term imo. They make frozen blood worms you could try but what you really want to do is culture live white worms but that is something a person needs to plan months ahead as they take time to get a good culture going. This is for people who don't have access to live black worms.
If you are using clams on the halfshell.. then get something better, LIVE clams from a Asian grocery store or fish market.
This is a fish that you want to buy when you have a source for live foods beforehand.
