As expected they havent eaten but threw in some carnivore amd chopped smelt anyway.
So what do you guys feed yours ? Do they eventually settled down amd atleast eat with the light on ?
Mine eats with the light on and swims when the light is first turned on in the morning for atleast 40 min non stop. Mine eats shrimp pellets and carnivore pellets and trout worms I had a rainbow shark in there before so I fed a veggie pellet I can't remember and it engulfed that along with the other sinking pellets, never spit it out so must've liked it. There was only a few ofcourse since it was just for the shark so it never got a lot. Didn't seek them out either.
Edit - I have some old videos of it swimming with the light on, I could never post to YouTube for whatever reason to share here, maybe I can email it to you and you can share it here if you'd be in to that lol

I feed mine mostly Hikari carnivore pellets. However, they eat everything from night crawlers, red wigglers, frozen bloodworms, frozen shrimp, frozen krill, frozen beef heart, etc. They clean everything off the bottom of the tank that's available.
Mine still don't feed with the lights on, but the second you turn it off they start eating everything. I keep my lights off at all times though, so they never really have a chance to get used to them (but I have zero algae). I use this to my advantage by leaving the lights on at first so that my eels can have a chance to eat before the catfish eat everything. The eels won't touch the pellets, so they are always there.
They are a super easy catfish to get eating. Mine have been eating from day one when I got them.
Are talking about the vulture or so you also have jaguar cats too ? Are they in the same tank wuth the vultures ?
Oh, my bad, I was talking about my vultures. They are the only catfish I have. The tank just has the two of them and three fire eels.
That's awesome! Can't wait to see pictures of your vultures. Do you know what size they are supposed to be, and who did you get them from?
