heylo everyone.
i just got a dwarf zebra lionfish from doctor fosters and smith a few days ago.
just to keep it alive and healthy i am feeding it live feeder guppies for now, but i have also been trying hard to get it to eat prepared food like silversides and krill. however, i put a dozen guppies in the tank and he only ate two of them. today when i put a half dozen in he is not even budging from the rock he is perched on. i'd really like to try ghost shrimp but it seems my local shops only have unhealthy ghost shrimp.
i have a transparent feeding stick and i have been trying to feed it silversides and krill. i also am using seachems garlic guard to entice it's appetite and it seems to have no interest.
anyone have any recommendations on what to feed and how to feed a dwarf lion? i've had them before...my last one i just fed guppies to and it loved them. really would like to try to get him some non living food though.
