While we are on this thread, can anyone suggest a recipe I can use as an alternative to bloodworms? They've been my staple for years. My fish love them, and I have never had problems fishwise, but my allergy to bloodworms has reached the stage where when I do water changes on tanks I feed heavily with the worms, I get unpleasant welts on my arms for maybe 30 minutes after. I don't get this symptom in tanks I feed with other foods, so I'm 'happy' there's a connection. I used to make my own mushy green Malawi food, but for Apistos, I'd want something cheap, nutritional and easy - I guess shrimp or fish based. Ideas, anyone? -Gary ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the apistogramma mailing list, apisto@listbox.com.
