Rare Dorado Catfish

[Superlaz]

I'm not one to rush switching over food, especially with wild caught fish. They're Stressed out enough as is. I would keep it stocked with feeders until it settles in fully and shows it's growing. That's me though, longer route but then tend to switch over to other foods more easily once settled. Same for Tigrinus.

Selling it already? Is anything wrong?

I recently got one at 8" a few days ago. Loves to sit up top behind a big driftwood stump and swim the current all day long. Ventures out slightly but still some what hesitant. Hasnt eaten anything yet and has passed right by food. Hes in a 500 gal so it has plenty of room. Not overstocked but is in with bigger fish. Nothing is picking on him so thats good. Hopefully settles in and eats soon. Gorgeous colors against the led lights.

Keep an eye on how it competes with the tankmates for feed and for hitting the walls.
