I have not seen him poo so im not sure about the color. I just tried digging out a earthworm from the garden and gave it to him. He looked at it and then ignored it. Im hoping RedRaven is correct. Maybee he just needs a little more time to settle in. I dont want to foul the water by adding to much food. Ill try a few nls pellets again later tonight. Ill add a little garlic like suggested.

So far still no luck with the eating. I did see him poo a little lastnight. It seemed normal to me, not white and stringy. I would love to give him some green peas to help with digestion but im sure hes just going to ignore those as well.... im feeling a little helpless in this situation. Hopefully something changes
Really you should start you’re own new post, at the top of every subforum is the post new thread button. But top pic looks female, bottom look male to me.
Yes male top female bottom, though I'd want to see more pics of bottom, face looks almost parachromis-esque to me, maybe a hybrid
Ive got a jack with a similar attitude. Hes been the toughest fish to get on pellets. Will only eat earthworms and frozen bloodworms. Also tetras, rainbowfish, dwarf cichlids too. If you find a pellet he will eat I'd love to try it on mine.
Got a ? What if the poop is half brown half white. I was at a friends house looking at his fis he has and I seen this. I’ve seen white or brown but not both. Sorry if this got of topic just curious I told him it might have parasites he disagreed what do u think. Or maybe it was a combination of foods.
