I have 2 Darters in my 50g Native tank with some Sunfish and Shiners. I just
went out and caught these 2. They are related to the Tessellated but surely
arn't Tessellated. Now I have had them for a few days and they will not eat
anything I give them. I have tried Cichlid Flake, finely ground Cichlid
pellets, frozen Brine Shrimp, and frozen Bloodworms. Why won't they eat
anything I give them, any suggestions?
Also, I have had a large group of about 10 Tessellated Darters that I caught
in December die on me because they wouldn't eat anything so I am now fearing
that this will happen to the ones I have now.
Thanks,
Henry Deford
