Question about my GSP

Post by xvCODY »

Ive given him 2 crabs in the past and he never touches them. Should i wait until he's bigger to give him any crabs/crays? Right now he's about 1.5in minus the tail.

Yea I would just periodically try him with small ones. It normally takes a while to realise it's food
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly

He'll peck at it once then leave it alone. I got that cracked 75g tank, btw. Traded one of my 10g tanks for it.
