yeah new thinbar

[wangster11235]

about a week ago i posted a thing about a thinbar, well he died on monday so i got a new one today. the person said it was in brackish and i know it wasnt supposed to so i am in the process of bring it back. i did add a little aquarium salt to help him feel better.
pics of the converting. now he is in the 5 gallon bucket not the magnum filter, but while in the magnum filter he ate a guppy so i guess thats good news.

Good luck with the little guy

They are hard to raise

I hope that he converts and survives for you.

the store came with double the salt of normal fresh water, thats what they said. but in his tank he had bala sharks and that wall that is supposed to be brackish had a bunch of fw fish

anyone know a good way to get him to eat prawns/shrimp?
he wouldnt eat that so i feed him some feeders and it was the coolest thing ever.
i will try bloodworms and krill tomorrow if he didnt eat off the rest of the feeders

Can't really see the fish. Depending on the variation of thin bars. Some will eat MP right away, and some will take forever to train to eat.

the fish is the black dot in the magnum. will post pics later but he looks a lot like this one, old one that died

RIP to the old dat.

Try starving it a couple days and throw in dried krills, then see if it will charge up and snatch it. If it does, it's a good sign.

should i do dry krill or frozen shrimp?
