Found in a tank of 20-30 faded 4 bar IT's this one a very stable 3 bar, 3-4". Arrived home and was pleasantly surprised to see he was still stable !
Day 3 he stopped hiding and went for a carinvore disk, chewed it up, spat out half and ate the rest. The next few days he would go for sinking pellets, discs, and red tetra bits, but then not eat them. He totally ignores raw shrimp and Hikari floating Sticks.
I lack the testicular fortitude to go "eat or die" and after a 5 day fast I have been feeding blood worm/brine shrimp daily, which he snaps up.
What is a comfortable amount of days a 3-4" Dat can go without food, and should I try raw shrimp or go straight to pellets/disks ?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
