I switched to a mainly non substrate tank recently other then a 2 or 3 inch long area on one side of the tank with rocks so they can hunt for uneaten bloodworms but i was considering switching back to a feeding jar but i had a question.
i had a feeding jar in the past, ans when any of my fire bellys went in to the jar to look in there or eat, they eventually tried going through the glass and when they couldnt get thrrough, they would swim franticly darting around in there. (For one thing, this usually spreads the bloodwworms andcauses some them to swirl out of the jar around the tank; this isnt my worry.) i was worried that they would maybe need air since i see air bubbles comming out. Is this something to worry about? I dont want them to drown in the long run if they continue doing so. I know they need aor and its possible for them to drown in worst case scenerios.
I also read that they cant swim backwards or turn while swimming so it could be a problem gettting out if they do t stop panicing. Is this somethig to Worry about? I feed them waxworms and occasionally earthworms now aside form little bloodworms in the gravel but i want to add as a staple
Feedback?
