It hasn't attacked anything yet either !!! The guy said the smaller fish would be ok if the rt x tsn is feed well and don't go hungry and he wont eat the other cats cuz they are to spiny !!! Hope this is true !!!! What do you think ?
My big hybrid is the most finicky big cat I have. (Given that is a relative concept though). Generally he's a good eater, but he's just more picky than others. I went through an almost 3 month period where he didn't eat a thing. (Long story, but I had to do some serious medicinal internal parasite treatments to get him through it after an introduction of new fish.). I say this only to give you an idea how long they can survive without food when they are large, not to worry you he's sick. Give him a few weeks. With clean water, a good environment, and tasty treats, I would guess that he will most likely start eating. Once he starts, it will ramp up quickly.
