I brought a Copperband home because he hadnt eaten in a week or soo and was looking weak. I have him quarantined and was wondering if you guys had any tips on trying to get him to start eating.
The biggest thing with shy/finicky eaters is making them feel comfortable which is hard to do in QT system.I brought a Copperband home because he hadnt eaten in a week or soo and was looking weak.

So what your saying is I need to go get a pond shell, some llumbing and have a lookdown tank setup in the garage before the wife gets home...lolThe biggest thing with shy/finicky eaters is making them feel comfortable which is hard to do in QT system.
We train finicky eaters to eat in parts of our trough since there is plenty of space and shelter. It also helps that it's a look down.
It also helps if the finicky fish are with fish that already eat. We keep a variety of Anthias in our "training tanks."
