When did I ever advocate only WC fish?

You know you only like WC.

Just too wild! Got to domesticate him.

Wait. So you advocate only WC fish, but don't like it when they act wild?

I'm going tommarrow to get nls 3mm.
I will report back tommarow after trying it.

Try nori seaweed.

Also try feeding him some hair algae. If he takes it try mixing flakes and/or pellets in there.

He seems fine. Just too wild! Got to domesticate him.

Aren't Petros in species aggressive?

Mines only chase the mbitas out of her cave but she doesn't target them and try to kill.

Try NLS 3mm lrg fish formula. My Longola female took it real well and almost immediately. She goes nuts!'

For some reason she doesn't take the HBH veggie flakes too well...

feed that big boy!!!

I feed him 6 times a day when I feed my trophs.
He doesn't eat!?
I feed my trophs nls 1mm 6 times a day.
The petro will occasionally put the nls 1mm in his mouth and will chew it 2-3 times and then spit it out.
He won't eat the shrimp mix either.
I don't know what to do.
However, he does eat the algae off of everything in sight.
And he is showing amazing color!
Plus he's extremly active!
He never sits still!
He's constantly swimming all around the tank and going against the current of the powerheads and digs/moves the sand around constantly!
so I don't know what's wrong!
Any suggestions are more than welcome!
