DO FLOWERHORS ACTUALLY EAT?????????????

[Musha]

Starve his ass! Dont feed him or attempt to feed him for "ATLEAST" 3 days and then see where that gets him.

I wasnt going to post here but since Musha did I caved in. Topic is lame but:

Like Musha said, starve it for 3-5 days, more if needed. Hunger will make them eat anything you feed them and they will be glad to get it, whatever it is.

Also, check your water conditions. I've found that my fh's won't eat if I get behind in on water changes. If u are putting in food he isn't eating it will spoil the water.

In my experience, most of the fh's I've kept would eat within a couple of days. They are good eaters for sure.

lots of things affects your flowerhorn,new water temp,water condition,tank space n pressure and its sorroundings,sooner he'll adjust and begs except if somethings going on in his tummy,hell be fine.
