Hey all.

They need time to get use to it. Give hem some time.

hi i have a plec that does this. i'll put in the algae wafers and he will not take much interest at all. he often goes right past them like they are not there. i leave them in the tank and usually when i wake up the next morning the have dissapeared so i'm assuming he ate them in the night.

most catfish/plecos are nocturnal so adding food in the day may and likely will be ignored, try adding some just before lights out
