Hello , my wife brough hom e a nice 3" or so Jaguar cat fo rme today. It appears to be healthy, but not quite as fat as I would expect. I know it is early and that it may take a few days for it to acclimate, but so far i have not seen it eat at all . The only foodthat has been offered so far though is NLS pellets. I may try some mysis or BW in a bit .
I was jsut wondering if anyone else out there who keeps this species could let em know what they feed.
If anyone has a picture of the fin differeance between a male and female that is really clearly evidnet please post!
Would jaguar cats be ok in a 110 gallon with some giant talking cats?
Thanks
Tim
 
I've had my jag for over a year now and have yet to see it eat anything but I know it eats well because it is the only nocturnal fish in its tank and any food I drop in at night is gone in the morning.I fed mine sinking pellets for the first few months and then started throwing in cut up shrimp and raw fish.It is a very beautiful catfish but it will not come out and move around during the day.
