Hello all,
I recently purchased a Golden Dwarf Moray Eel and I wanted to get a few questions answered in regards to a diet and feeding for this cool little guy! He's been in the tank for about 5 days and he has yet to eat the krill that I try to feed him with via feeding tongs. I understand that sometimes eels will fast up to a period of a month and I wanted to get some ideas on how to entice him to start eating.
Lastly, I wanted to get some information on a nice varied diet for the eel. I once owned a snowflake eel who I only fed silver sides and one day he stopped eating after eating a silver or two daily and later died a week or two later. I'm not sure to what caused his death but I think it was because silver sides aren't very nutritious. I want to avoid this same thing from taking place so please if anyone has any advice or experience in providing a varied diet for this eel let me know what I can do.
