Gold Nugget Pleco

[Angelbettas]

I've had my gold nugget pleco for 2 weeks. Although he's started coming out of his hiding places more frequently, he doesn't seem to be eating. I've left zucchini and lettuce and tried sinking algae tablets, but nothing is touched. I've also tried feeding live blackworms when he's been out and he isn't interested in those, either. Anybody have any suggestions?

Golden nuggets are chiefly meat eaters that will supplement their diet with algea,try a little frozen bloodworm or frozen mussel (most plecos love mussels) and he should soon start eating.
