yes it was cycled im just putting them in there for now becuase my other fishes in my big tank will eat them. they are only two inches and yes the tank is cycled
ohkay i will see if i can get them in a big tank without my big fishes eating them. but what can i feed 2" Tem and mono?
this always happened when i first got my p-bass. They take a while to eat, well in front of you. i would put little guppies in the tank during the day so i can watch but nothing would happen but when i wake up in the morning they would be gone. When they are that small they are still seen as food to other fish so it is instinct to hide and to be very very cautious at that size. Should be eating soon tho! best of luck!
mine just did the same! do alot of small waterchanges to make sure the water is 100%. mine are starting to eat alot now. its hard to keep water parameters good in a small tank. especially w feeders
Yes, spikes in ammonia can happen quickly. Keep trying with them. Do the guppies look to big for them? If so, try live blackworms or bloodworms.
