Hey...I have had a baby (very small, maybe 2 inches) pictus catfish for about 2 days now and it will not eat. I also have 3 balloon mollies in the tank and they get along fine...have not had a problem. The thing is, the day I brought it home I bought 4 ghost shrimp as well and the stupid guy at the pet store put them in the same bag (intended to put them in different tanks). When I got home, there were only two ghost shrimp left in the bag (guess he got hungry). I was thinking maybe this is why he's not eating because he had a little ghost shrimp buffet the other day...but he ignores the food I put in the tank for him and the balloon mollies end up eating their own flake food and the sinking shrimp pellets I put in there for the catfish (the package said these pellets were good for catfish and bottom feeders).
My tank is tiny (4 gallons) but I intend to move the Pictus to a bigger tank within the month so it has room to grow.
Any suggestions to get my guy to eat?
