I picked up a T. suvati a week ago. Not the best reason, but I felt sorry for him after being in a 1 gal. cubicle for 5 weeks. I put him in a 20 long with sand and driftwood. He is 6”, and the biggest one I’ve seen.
ive tried to get him to eat but he won’t. He buries in sand part of the day, but comes out and lurks in different places. There are fish in the tank and I offer various insects but no interest so far. He looks very healthy and is not stressed, judging by his color and behavior. He acts a lot like my Congo(ie- like a piece of substrate)z
I know suvatis can fast for a longtime, but any suggestions to get him going would be appreciated.
