I have a Delhezi that eats Krill, worms, and even feeders.
I got a new Endlicheri and he looks INCREDIBLE. Sooooo sick, BUT - he wont eat. He wont even eat worms.

Any suggestions?
 
Ahaha same situation as me... The last time I first got my poly it wont eat too...

Give it some time to adjust to its new home =) Then it will start eating
 
How long have you had it now? Just give it some time.
 
are you sure???just wait and see, all my endli are monster beast, always have a big belly every time I check; they always have a big meal, and even small endli can swallow big prey, they normally eat at night, or when people are not around
 
i cant give it feeders cuz he's so small that i'd have to use guppies and those would be so small that my eel and the bigger polypterus would DESTROY all the guppies before it had a chance.
 
i had the same prob just get some beef heart defrost it and the like put it infront of your filter and let it blow it around they should pick it as they go around the tank and clean up anything they havnt eaten :)
 
Hey mate,

Had the same problem.. I have a 10cm Endlicheri and it wouldn't eat blood worms, pellets or beef heart.... but then I tried prawn... little guy loves prawns. Just cut it up into tiny pieces and you turn around and its gone and he has a big fat stomach after it....

Regards

Dan.
 
Are you sure it's just not eating in front of you?
