ive had a nice 12" tiger shovie for around a month now but he isnt eating anything that i give him. Ive tried prawns, smelt, muscles, hikari sinking carnivore pellets etc. The people who i got him from said that he ate prawns all the time, but he doesnt. The thing that i have noticed though is that my shoal of small/medium firemouths have all disappeared and he has a big fat belly so i know he has eaten them. He is very active like a TSN should be and is always at the glass swimming around. He is in a 6' x 2' x 2' tank which will be upgraded as he gets bigger.
Water quality is fine:
Ammonia 0
Nitrite 0
Nitrate 5
pH 7
I just wanted to ask what i could feed him that he would eat and that is relatively cheap and healthy for him. Ive tried getting him onto the prawns but he just wont take them so live food is the only option. Cheers.
