Had these since Saturday and they won't except pellet or flake they will only eat frozen bloodworm I'm netting / siphoning the uneaten food everyday have removed the divides and they are the same pellet as where they came from ? Any ideas
2" flowerhorn problems
- Thread starter Deserthead
- Start date
I would not feed them for a day or two until they accept pellets
Your getting them used to just eating the worms only
Once they settled and hungry enough they should eat for you

Starve the little guys until they're hungry. Flowerhorns are pigs. When they are hungry they will eat. I just went through that with one of mine. My wife got it hooked on eating nightcrawlers.... and for around 2-3 weeks that's all he wanted to eat. So eventually I cut him back on feedings and gave him pellets once a day. Hes eating good on his original diet 2-3 time a day now. You're not going to hurt those fish if they go a couple days without eating
