I need some advice on getting these guys to eat. Any and all adviuce is awesome. I have 12 in a 150 with a huge L-14. They dont seem to be eation but I want to make sure they do.
Thanks
Jim

I would try bloodworms or blackworms. Most of the meat eating plecos love these things.

This is strange because my seven L134s have eaten virtually everything I put in the tank from day one. They are in a 55gal community tank so plenty of competition for food. Nothing special with the water, pH 7.2 and water if hard with a high KH reading also. In my experience the L134 is normally a very active plec.

I've had no problem with mine.They are taking bloodworm,algae wafers,catfish pellets and they go crazy on chopped shrimp/prawn.I've also seen them grazing on cucumber.
Just because you haven't seen them eating doesn't mean they aren't.



best of luck

search around the forums for "garlic" Barbie worked a thread about encouraging imports to feed. I've used the method as well, with 134's in fact.

I read them and well? Where do I get Garlic extract from? DO I rinse it after it is soaked for (amount of time)? I have tried Brine Zucc, Omega first flake. Thanks alot for all the help. YOu guys are dreat.
