so I purchased a black pup this week and it arrived on Tuesday March 20th and it hasn’t ate a single thing. I’ve tested all water parameters and have tried feeding fine chopped earthworms, bloodworms, talapia, shrimp, mysis shrimp all with no luck. This is the most skittish pup I’ve ever seen and personally don’t think it should’ve been sold as it’s only the size of my palm. I know it had a rough ride here as I watched the UPS guy throw the box on my porch and it tumble a few times as I was opening the door but you’d think after going on 5 days now he’d be settled in more. I’m at a loss of what to do, blackworms is the only thing I can think of and no one local has them and being how tiny he is and so skinny I’m not sure he’d even make it through a round of meds to treat for worms or parasites.
