Bored and introducing new baby!

Hello everyone, haven’t posted here in a while, been pretty busy working and what not. But anyways , I got a new baby that I will be growing out in my 55 until he is big enough to go in the 125G with the Oscar, Red Devil and, Jack Dempsey. He/she is a Delhezi Bichir, I picked it up Wednesday the 5th of this month. It is very shy, I’ve been trying to drop sinking pellets but does not want to eat. I figured since it’s new it’s too scared especially because it is only like 2.5 or 3 inches big right now. I just hope it starts to eat soon but anyways what should I name this cute little guy? And any suggestions on getting him to eat? TIA also merry Christmas and happy new year to everyone hope y’all had a good one

 

Might be good if you got some caves or something for it to hide, if you don't already. As far as a name...Bumble

Already do! Got like 2 or 3 hiding spots then I have a big chunk of mopani wood for my blue eyed bristle nose. The bichir chooses to hide under the wood and sometimes will come out and just sit for a few minutes then go back and bumble sounds nice, but I think I’m looking for more of a aggressive name since he will be a monster and living with the other monsters for example I named my albino oscar Zeus, the red Devil- Diablo and the JD Jack

 

2022 is the year of Tiger, and a water Tiger at that! So whatever your favorite tiger from reality, fiction or such would be a good name.

Something vicious like "Hobbes" or "Tigger".

He looks like a dragon to me. You could name him Drogon (Game of Thrones) or Pachua (meaning "feathered water snake").

 

My first thought was he/she reminded me of the Chinese New Years dragons so looked up what year/animal this year is. My three baby fish have not gotten proper names, nicknames only, including Hot Lips.
Tiger or Dragon inspired: I’m sure this shy baby will grow into its name.

 

Maybe live foods will entice it to eat - or contact the LFS and ask what they fed him.
