About 3 weeks ago I bought a 2.5 - 3inch flowerhorn and I've found out that he is more picky with his food than my 2 young kids. I usually feed Hikari Gold pellets to my cichlids and he barely ate those... usually 1-3 mini pellets a a time (if that.) However, when it comes to the frozen brine shrimp it seems like he'll go crazy and eat the entire cube.
He was in my 125 for about a week with my other cichlids and last Saturday I moved him to his own 72 bow front. I normally feed my cichlids once or twice a day.
I figure I might try not to feed him for a day or 2 but does anyone have any suggestions on breaking this pattern? I've honestly never had a fish that was a picky eater before.
