i just purchased a 3.5" datnoid and hes not eating anything i feed him.how long can they go without eating??? any ways to get him to start?? I need help.
starve it for 4 days and drop a piece of food or whatever you feed your fishes. if it stil doesnt eat, give some live stuff like, ghost shrimp. black worm, brine shrimp. or market shrimp with shell off and see if that works. if it doesnt there are suppliments you can try using like Kent garlic xtreme
thanks i will try that. but my datnoid is a ntt its tank mate is a 4in jardini. they were chasing eachother but no injuries at all. today i went out and bought a divider. was wondering how long should i have the divider in there for? will they later on be good friends??
The Jardini will outgrow the Tiger ...10 fold. And may well kill your tiger later on. so be carful.
Tigers take long time to settle in, so worse case... it can take months to start feeding.
Christ4Paul has posted some good feeding tips above.
