Okay, need tips on making this guy eat!
Daily water changes are on..... Haven't seen it eat though! Have tried small live fish, market prawn, tubifex, mosquito larvae.... It may have eaten some tubifex last night.....

Black worms are the best thing to use for small retics. My female was about the same size when I got her and she wouldn't eat anything but black worms at first.

Thanks PGill.... Blackworm is the best starting food for these guys, but difficult to source out here. But good news is, just saw him gorge (rather gingerly) on tubifex worms! Now that I have seen him eat, I'm much relieved.... :)
