Just bought a ropefish, he doesnt seem to be eating. what do they eat, should I put the food infront of him? or just let him swim up and get it, I dunno thank you guys.
Try frozen bloodworms to get it started eating then introduce a good quality pellet-Anne
mysis shrimp
brine shrimp
krill
bloodworms
tubifex worms
squid
beefheart
shrimp pellets
worm pellets
even pellets for cichlids will work
spirulina sticks
brine shrimp sticks
Algae wafers(some eat them some just look at them)-Anne
It just might be looking to hunt.
try throwing in some white clouds or if you can find some healthy neons.
mine frome time to time will even eat snails.
but if you don't see it eat, don't panick they perfer to eat at night some tmes.
