View Full Version : What to do Thingymabob Aug 22nd, 2004, 12:23pm what do you do when your cuttlefish does not eat? tjohnson Aug 22nd, 2004, 02:03pm How long have you had him, maybe he is just adjusting to his new enviroment if you just got him. Nancy Aug 22nd, 2004, 02:35pm Also, are you offering some live food? Nancy Colin Aug 23rd, 2004, 02:41am Normally they inly stop eating whem they are full! Are you using live crabs? Thingymabob Aug 23rd, 2004, 04:23am im feeding it live shrimp and live fish. ive only had it for a few days. the second day it started eating but the third day it stopped. joel_ang Aug 23rd, 2004, 05:11am Give the cuttle a break, don't feed him for about a day and he should be hungry by then, sometimes my cuttles will ignore food thats just in front of their faces. How large are the fish and shrimp? Thingymabob Aug 23rd, 2004, 05:29am the fish are about 2 cm and the shrimp are about 2 cm as well. If it doesnt eat could that also mean it's dieing? Thingymabob Aug 23rd, 2004, 05:32am it's not really good at aiming though because it has to try at least three times to get the fish or shrimp. for shrimp it usually takes around 5 times. Colin Aug 24th, 2004, 05:51am that will get better as time goes on :) Andy Lister Aug 27th, 2004, 08:39am Where is he sat in the tank? If he is at the surface then he is hungry and hunting, if he is sat on the botton and buried then he is nice and content! |
