archer fish

[azenpride]

I just bought an archer fish, i know they live in brackish water, what do you feed them? I tired frozen blood worms, It ate it the first day, but it didn't really eat it the second. I know these fish can spit water and jump to catch prey, but i don't what is the easyist way to feed them?

I used to have 2 of them. They ate my little guppies Ouch!. They may eat bloodworms and rarely do they accept flakes. It's mostly live food.
Other than that, they can eat small insects on the water surface or shoot them down from the water (as the little bee is landing on a branch cross over the water surface, the archer fish creates a jet of water and shoot him donw and have him) if you can manage to creat such setting, it's cool and it's a joy to see him hunting.

Try a small bugs or such by placing them on the top of the water while alive.

moths should work great.
