Yes he is able to open his mouth. A couple of days back I did see him eat some mp with ease. So it is puzzling to see him struggle to eat today.

He is also a fahaka that tolerates tankmates, has a school of small silver dollars for company.

My newly bought fahaka which is about 5 inch has trouble biting small pieces of mp or market prawn. Some background: Had him for about a week now. Only realized it had a protruding anus after I brought it home. Have since added epsom salt and treated for IPs. Now it has trouble eating some pieces of...

Did u manage to get the clown loaches from the classifieds?

Lol

Ok I think garlic worked. It didn't eat the clams when I was in front of the tank but when I came back later they were eaten. Doubt the silver dollars ate them so it probably did. Will try again tmr.

An Asian Aro, an Indonesian datnoid, an ornate bichir and a clown loach. Hoping to add a Goliath tiger soon if I can find one that's about 7 inch minimum. Tank is a 4 by 1.5 by 1.5

Thanks. He/she is in a 4 by 1.5 by 1.5 on it's own, with some silver dollars for company. In Singapore, this is a pretty big tank for one fish, and not my first mbu too ;) He doesn't look interested in taking chunks out of the silver dollars yet, just happy to just stare at them. Doesn't have a name...

A ten incher. Biggest one I've owned so far

my mbu grew only about an inch or so during the past 4 months. this could be due to me being lazy sometimes and only feeding 2-3 times a week.

is his growth normal? will he be stunted?
