:hmm: i really need help i bought a puffer and i cannt get it to eat anything i have tried to hand feed it and tried all differant types of food can someone help me
how long have you had the puffer for??? A few days, weeks??
Normally a fish that stresses out wont eat for a few days and even up to a week...
What have you been tr ying to feed it?
If you've just tried prepared foods, try some live foods such as a feeder minnow or guppy just to "initiate the feeding instincts"
if it wont touch the live feeders, leave them in there for a few days... or leave the tank lights off, no food, no disturbing, and give him about 4 days to chill out and settle down.. then try feeding him
Thats a tough one! Im not sure I can come up with any ideas better than the ones vTEC mentioned. :?:
