What should I feed a 3'' royal knife? I've tryed feeder danios, frozen blood worms, and ghost shrimp. I have'nt seen him eat anything so far...

How long have you had him? sometimes it takes them awhile to get used to a new tank, my clown knife didnt eat for acouple days unless I put food right near him. Im sure he'll eat give him a few days when hes hungry He'll be out looking for food. My clown eats Freeze dried Krill an canivore pellets.

Give him some time... mine didnt eat for over a week when I added him. Now he loves shrimp and beefheart. Bloodworms seem to attract him as well:) If you want to see him eat you may have to watch at night when feeding live food, because thats when they come out to hunt.

turn off the tank lights, add a few live feeders in and check back in a few hrs. :grinyes:
