Hi, everyone. I have an iridescent shark that won't touch anything but pellets. Live food, freeze dried, doesn't even look at them.I've fed live and freeze dried for two days and he starved instead of eating. What should I do?
How do you know it is common ?kbn said:I got him a month ago. I know it's not common for new iridescent sharks to not eat for days, but he has adapted fine. And don't worry about the space, I've got that sorted out. It's just the food. By the way he's a juvenile.
Nice !!!! I always thought there were only a few keepers of these fish cause as mentioned earlier they shouldn't be in the hobbytrade.kbn said:Sorry, I meant it is common for iridescent sharks to NOT eat for days after they have been introduced to new tanks. I know this partly by experience and partly by the internet

I mean to say it is great that you found that info about a fish that isn't kept that often.kbn said:what do you mean
I just want a second opinion and the reason for this strange food behaviour.david1978 said:Variety is nice but good quality pellets are the bulk of his food so I wouldn't worry too much.
I tried it, didn't work.Platylover said:Have you tried soaking it in garlic?
