I just got a Royal L191 and Green phantom L200. The Green phantom eats everything but the royal doesn't seem to be eating. What do you feed? if I may ask.
I have a few different pieces of drift wood in the tank and I have tried zucchini. and yellow squash. Potatoes and apples along with pleco waffers and shrimp pellets. Plus everything I feed the other fish.
Im starting to get concerned. Its been a week and I have yet to see him eat anything but maybe some algae on the back glass. I can see his tracks in the glass.
Try cucumber. And some food after the lights go out. He is most likely scavenging during the night.
I feed mine algae wafers and it eats DW and algae on glass sometime cucumbers and zucchini but it's true I only catch pictures of it in the night never in the day
Royals may take some time to settle in, but get pretty bold once they do. One of my L191s wouldn't come out of his corner for months and I had to target feed him. Now that he has put on some size he bulldozes all the others out of the way at feeding time.
