I hate Bloodworms!

I thought my alergic reactions to them was over. I fed my puffer tonight and without even touching my face/eyes and with washing my hands with soap and water, my eyes are red, itching and burning! i hate it!!! GAHHHHH why can't he be an easy fish and not be picky. I think i'm going to try some krill, i'm getting tired of being alergic to his food

 

are you using gloves? maybe try that.

 

WOW, that sucks. I just recently got some from Reefcleaners and my fish are loving them. I would hate to deprive them of good food because I couldn't touch it.

Feel better.

 

have you tried live brine shrimp ? ive noticed my trigger way prefers the live brine to any frozen stuff plus its fun to watch them chase after live food

 

i had tried using gloves when i first started getting alergic reactions, but they just got to be a pain, but then for a while up until now i hadn't gotten any reactions to the bloodworms, but now i'm getting them again

yea, my puffer loves bloodworms, i've given him live, but mainly frozen, it's the only thing he eats. And thanks it's almost gone now, just a little burning/redness usually lasts 15min but it hurts like hell

haven't tried live brine shrimp, i've tried the frozen mysis and brine soaked in garlic that i give my other fish, but he just spits it out, maybe theres a chance he'll go after those

 

finally alergic reacotion is gone, took half an hour even with taking an alergy pill. Stupid puffer, it's al his fault

 

lmao welcome to my world but thank god im not allergic to them. My stupid puffer will only eat them which then i had to make an all new type of food for him so he wont starve. Go get some latex gloves from auto parts store and bam there you go!

 

would a spoon work? like a measuring spoon? defrosts and hold the stuff all in one and then you wont have to touch it.

 

hey our puffers sound exactly alike, such picky eaters

that would work, but i would still need to touch them to cut the cube with knife
