    Hi,

    Any idea what to feed this fish? I have it since a couple of days and he is very active but does't eat my pellets...

    Thank you.

    What kid of pellets are you feeding them? They are a carnivore and such... Id assume trying to get them to eat with mysis or brine or other meaty foods would be a good place to start.
