New Polli

[Cohazard]

relax and just leave her alone before you do something to stress her more


Is that pic of her in your tank or Johns?


Polys need a few days to just be left alone, and preferably with a piece of driftwood they can stick their head under to feel hidden.

Palmas polli is more active then other bichirs, so they swim around a lot. Let it adjust to your environment. If you don't want to feed Massivore pellet, feed with super worms or shrimp cut into small pieces will be fine. Don't you notice how fat is it?

sounds like stress. watch him. possible disease

Didn't you mean obesity? Fish has been in my care for 7 months, fat as a Kosher sausage!
