Supplements for Thicktails

[MoreliaMatt]

hey there,

i split up my pair of thick tails the other day to feed up the female for the coming breeding season. the male was pigging down the majority of the food leaving her with only minimal.
so i split them and left the female in the big tank and moved the male so the female doesnt get unsettled.

my question is i have calcium supplements which i am supplying her with to build up her strength and give her a decent condition before cooling and breeding.
does any one recommend a multi vitamin aswell?

i have never used a multi vitamin before so if people recommend it what do i look for in a vitamin and what to avoid?

cheers!

Matt

I give mine URS multivitamins once per week. Easy to find in SA Matt and fairly cheap. I use their calcium D3 supplement as well.

I don't use any supplements at all, just stacks of bugs.

I must admit, my jar of vitamin supplement from 5 years ago is still full, I've used it maybe 10 times?
I use the calcium supplement every 2nd feed though.
