Hi guys, is there any of you living near the menasha/appleton Wisconsin area ?
I have a 6/7 inches Spotted Raphael Catfish looking for a good home.
I got it for free but he doesn't eat any of the food I give to him.
I tried different bottom feeders food, shrimp n fish from grocery store cut in little pieces but he didn't touch em, I tried blood worms n brine shrimps bug he still doesn't eat. I thought maybe one of you lives near by n have more experience than me caring for this kind of fish.
If any of you lives close by n would like to adopt this guy please let me know .

Thanks
 
unless the person you got the fish from, bought it that large, it must have been eating for them??? assuming you tried the exact food they were feeding it??? maybe a good question, was it eating for them, or did they gift it because it wouldn't eat for them??? if it was wild caught, at the size it is ( large by aquarium standards ) maybe try some feeder guppy's, rosy minnows, etc... perhaps it needs live food to catch...

I don't currently have a good tank for it, & I'm not very close, being in southern MN
