hi guys i have just found a product that gets our favourite fish back eating when they stop!!!!!!!!! my tiger has no interest in ANY food whatsoever for a month now and beleive me i have tried everything!!!!!!!!!!including the kitchen sink!!!!!!! with no response at all ..not even a look from him....so i was racking my brains after a month of trying everything.then i suddernly remembered a product i used to use to CATCH fish years ago....it was developed by government scientists and is a pheremone to trigger fish into a feeding frenzy.......it does work ..I EVEN GOT TROUT EATING STONES!!!!!!! that were soaked in it:woohoo: so i thought i would see if the feeding frenzy would trigger my oscar to feed....so after trying 5 different species specific types (as they dont make it for oscars)..i had soaked hikari staple floaters in ..i still had no reaction at all ...but this morning i received by mail the last shot at it !!!!!!!! general course fish type.. put 4-5 drops from the vial on about 6-8 hikari floating pellets and BANG!!!!!!!!!!! oscar and the jack dempsey and all the other cichlids going NUTS FOR THEM!!!!!!!!! i couldnt beleive my eyes.!!!!!!!!! heres the info about the cure



REVOLUTIONARY
Essentially, it is a fish attractant that was developed jointly by a private company and the government, and uses the fish's own hormones and pheromones, attracting fish to an area and then turns them on to feed. These are natural animal instincts which are motivated and cannot be turned off at will. This is a huge breakthrough, as previous attractors relied on fish derivatives.

DOES IT WORK
Ultrabite works for sure, in field tests, one of the problems has been that, as a result of drawing so many fish to a swim, line bites have been too prevalent - so they had to reduce some of the hormone levels, there is also evidence on video that shows fish trying to eat stones as there was no food available for them to eat

ULTRABITE
Ultrabite is revolutionary because it combines sex pheromone, food and bite inducing aromas. Ultrabite is the first government approved fish attractant and is endorsed and used by Matt Hayes. Ultrabite attracts male and female fish and is available in 9 species profiled formulae. Kiotech and CEFAS combined their knowledge of pheromone and fish attraction in developing and researching Ultrabite. Early interest was aroused by two observations, Scottish fishermen reported the annoying habit of inexpert women to land large fish and The Field Magazine published a reader’s letter mentioning success with flies tied using the pubic hair of the reader’s wife when he had had little success before.

KIOTECH
is a British company with expertise in modifying brain patterns and triggering mood states and behavioural changes through the use of aromas. Sex pheromones and mood inducing aromas are the special interest of Dr George Dodd, who saw his skills to be of potential benefit to anglers. Dr Dodd knew that women had a reputation for catching larger salmon and saw a possible pheromone link at play in this. On contacting The Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Sciences, he found CEFAS already had an effective sex attractant, Factor X, which they held patent rights upon. Kiotech and CEFAS pooled resources and now offer 10 species specific formulae where sex attractants overlay food odours to provoke bite, feed and frenzy characteristics in both fish sexes.

CEFAS
The Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Sciences is a British Government Agency with interests that include the subject of fish attraction. Factor X is a patent held formula registered by CEFAS. Dr Andy Moore, of CEFAS, has reviewed the UK and Japanese trial data for Ultrabite with Dr George Dodd of Kiotech. The certification of Ultrabite as an effective fish attractant is a significant step for CEFAS. It being a government agency, there is an absolute need for open, honest and scientifically proven bases for its public endorsement of a commercial product


guys this REALY DOES WORK ..........

I've seen that for sale in some of the angling magazines

Oscars sometimes stop eating because they are ill. It's rather like humans or even our other pets, if you're ill, you don't want to eat anything. So I suppose in some circumstances you may be able to trigger your Oscar into eating if the fish is refusing all food that you offer it. But if it's ill, nothing is going to make the fish eat.

If you can't ignore an insult, top it; if you can't top it, laugh it off; and if you can't laugh it off, it's probably deserved

yeah i should have added that boss but i know for sure my O was not ill ......just gone off his food....and i just needed something to trigger him back on to it ..i have fed him twice since this morning once with hikari gold floaters and once with freeze dried krill WITH NO ULTRABITE on either and hes back eating like a pig!!!! so i must add in this instance it was usefull but if your fish is not eating you need to get to the cause of the problem not just stick plasters on gaping wounds...it may also be usefull in cases whare oscars will only take feeders and refuse ALL other food ETC.........

It could make sense, fish gets ill, stops feeding, gets well but hasnt eaten for wks so dont feel the need. stomach could have shrunk? Anything is worth a try when all else failed.

im a touch confused myself, my oscars will happily eat both floating and sinking pellets as well as worms etc but have no interest at all in bloodworm, is this common? dont get why they eat everything else except it lol, its not a problem or anything just somthing that iv noticed, are my fish just picky?? lol
