Baby silver

[fugidabowtit]

2 days ago i bought he smallest silver aro i have ever seen, he is about 2" no egg sac.
i have big aros and have had a few but never a baby.
my question is what shall i feed him. he is in a 2ft tank at the moment with 8 mountain minnows. he has no interest in eating them at the moment and wont touch blood worm or krill.
cant get a pic as during the day he hides behind the filter and only comes out when it is dark.

Give him some time.. He should take bloodworms... U can try flakes also..

Keep the water level low for now like around 6 inches. It'll make him feel better in there.
