congo puffer appetite low maybe?

Post by defool89 »

My new black congo is like half an inch to an in long.... I have not seen him eat but 2 blood worms since yesterday when I got him... ive tried mussels and red fiddler worm. Hes so small I cant tell if 2 blood worms can be called a meal...shall I be concerned? I had to get hom out of the tank and into a small fish container and wave the blood worm infront of his face for a lil while for him to notice...

It takes a while for any puffer to adjust. Poor fella came all the way over from Africa, for Pete's sake!
