L47 not eating

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
SUCCESS!
He wouldn't eat the garlic-soaked zuchunni, cucumber, or seaweed yesterday/last night. This afternoon, I did a concoction of garlic juice and live black worms...he ate two large piles worth! Then, I soaked four different types of Kensfish wafers and he is nibbling on that now as well. Also, the temp is bumped up to 84.

Thank you all for the tips. Hopefully, Chuck Norris is out of the woods :headbang2
 
That's great news. Just making sure you increased the aeration since the temp is 84. Also, you may want to try seeing if blackworms without garlic extract works, now that it eats bw w/ garlic. Same for Kensfish wafers.

I am going to keep doing the garlic for a few more days just as a preventative for possible IPs. He nibbles at the wafers but doesn't devour them. Its probably going to be a long process to get him eating like a champ.

Also, I have dual Pengiun 280 biowheel filters and 2 airstones in the tank so oxygen is good.
