Hi all,
I bought a PBT on sat which just arrived in CF on dat day. I did not have a chance to see it feed as it only just arrived.
Now 3 days later, it has not begin to feed in my 2 foot QT tank. It showed no interest in garlic soaked pellets, nori, Henry's, frozen mysis/brine, flakes, shredded seaweed. Is it doomed? It ls a beautiful 5 inch specimen with no ich and getting only uv treated water. The QT tank is even strewn with small LR with algae growing from my ATS.
I just swims leisurely with regular gill beats, not shy, not stressed but not eating.
What else can I do to initiate a feedng response? How many days will a newly arrived PBT need before it decides to eat? What is the longest no of days you've experienced?
I have not tried red bamboo or frozen cyclopeeze yet. What do you think?
I'm frustrated and in despair...
