Feeding my baby. Problems i think...

Yeah, I have three rosy's now...albino whitewater and two coastals...I used to have a Mexican, but my little girl opened his cage and didn't tell me and he escaped...I haven't seen him in over a month so I'm guessing he got outside...:depressed
You shouldn't have a problem switching him, it's just the first time that takes a little work...FT are a lot easier to stock up on and hold on to...but it's up to you, most don't see a problem either way!

thanks for your help man.

Hmmm..You said 2 hides in a 55-gal tank...If your new friend is just a baby, isn't the tank too big???? I know that's what I've read here over and over....for a baby, they need to have small tanks, or they're overwhelmed and stressed. And it took my Baby almost 7 months before she'd eat, but she's eatin' now!


Good luck! Just keep reading, researching and learning....It will come. ;)

hmm... i've never read that.

can anyone else confirm this? i was doing some research over the weekend and didn't find anything about a cage being too big. he cruises at nite and doesn't seem stressed at all... just very uninterested about the F/T pinkies. he cruises at nite to all parts of the viv and lays out in the open either on his tree or the lip of his water dish.

thanks for your help by the way! 7 months is a long time, i'm hoping he'll eat this week..
