Puffer Not Eating

[connorsbala]

I got a dwarf ouffer on sunday (todays tuesday) and he hasnt eaten yet! He was only fed on live brine shrimp so do you think he'll only eat that? Ive been putting in 1/2 a cube of frozen brine shrimp, mysis and ive just put in some fine cockle. Is this normal? Is he lonely as there were about 10 of them in on elil tank id say about 3 uk gals or something, where there were no signs of aggression or anything...i watched them as i work there !
So is this normal as hes getting used to his surrondings or do i need to do something? Ill get soem pics of my setup up soon to see if its something to do with that

Thanks

Have you tried frozen bloodworms? They can be picky eaters. Mine never refuses bloodworms frozen or live. Have you tried live brine shrimp like at the lfs? Also a small baby snail? Good luck.
