i recently got a 44.5" male thats doing fine on nls @ ultra color pellets( for variety), earthworms, krill, beefheart, bloodworms and some homemade food made up of veggies fish and shrimp. im wondering what others feed theirs. i realize that this is a slow growing species but i feel its well worth the wait.
thanks for any information in advance.

thanks for any information in advance.That's one big grammode:wedgie: LOL.
I don't think you'll find many people here keeping those, but hey if what your feeding is working then great. They do grow slow though, one reason I've never kept them. Not enough instant gratification.

Thanks! This fish can't even live with a female. He killed the snails and plastic plants I put in there...he also tries to kill the drift wood (funny to watch)!
I have always liked the Grammodes! They are sort of like a miniature Dovii!
