my zullie only take feeder white clouds i want him to take bloods like rich said but its a no go for now. i think its due to stress from transport but i mean its been a couple days now. maybe i should add some decor? im gonna go buy 200 whitecoulds today so i wouldnt need to feed him for a while.
 
^^^^ highly agree!!! mine are taking in frozen bloodworms like 5mins after i threw them in the tank. So hopefully they turn to FBW soon for you too! I just gave mine new born mollies from 2 of my mollies that just gave birth yesterday from my feeder community tank!!!
 
Do you have the white clouds in the tank with him the whole time? If you do take them out, and try bloodworms in the morning. I find that mine are more hungry in the mornings and will even take pellets.
Also how many do you have? If he is alone he might get lazy since he
has no one to compete with.

Agreed... cichla in small group behave like piranha.... :D
 
If you just keep offering BW then they should come around and start eating them again. Can I ask why you do not want to feed live?
 
i reckon you should feed whatever they take.. post some pics too lol..
