Fish Not Eating

[helsekia]

Hi
I bought a lapradei 6 days ago he is 12 inches long.The lfs said he was feeding whitebait,prawn and mussel which I have been using.

He hasnt eaten since saturday and Im worried.Any ideas?

He is in with a delhezi,senegals and some balas and cichlids none of which bother him and are all of good size.

thanks in advance

Its quite normal for larger fish to not eat for up to a few weeks after first getting them, carry on feeding the rest of the tank as usual and eventually it will eat once it wants to.

Try feeding just after you turn out the light-Anne
