Grow outs

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
So wanted to run this by you guys. I always raise an eyebrow when they dont eat. Heres the deal.
In the grow out are faranah lap, teug, and ansorgii
1st couple of days teug at like crazy. Then became shy. Now only eats at lights out, normally i wouldnt give in but i want these guys to put size on fast so im following their lead. Lap was eating fine and i think the ansorgii at a couple of times.

Since then the ansrogii isnt eating as i said teug is only eating after dark.

A couple of days ago i added sand and some rocks all of them havent eaten since thinking they were/are stressed from the change


Thoughts ?
 
I assume stressed since all are doing it.

Could always try soaking the pellets or food with some garlic. Just to see if it makes a difference. Maybe switching to chopped up worms or lice worms that are squeezed out.

Definitely sounds like stress. A day or two and they should be back on schedule

Whats your thoughts on the ansorgii ? He was wldoing this prior. Just dont like it when they take this long.

Did treat the tank with a round of pg, only the 1 48 hr dose bit that was when i first got them
