u should read before getting any new spieces.

They need many times in the day.

I had tried many times. Not easy to get it feeds. Have one that starved for 2 months and RIP. Thank God just got one and feeding on flake. Must be in very small piece. Can try "cycopleze" (not sure of the spelling)

Hi, i faced the same problem initially but it started eating after i put in live brine shrimps. Can give it a shot.

Good Luck. Next time you get a fish. Make sure its already feeding b4 u buy it.

Most LFS will allow u to test whether the fish is feeding.

Unless u are very confident that u can train the fish to eat by urself.

Cheers

Frozen cyclopeeze should work.
