Dovvi aka Wolf Cichlid

[Pokorny]

I have two baby dovvi and they dont seem like eating cichlid pellets or frozen beef....wat should i feed them? There about an inch long.

maybe try some flake, my jack dempsey didnt like pellets until he got to around 31/2 inches, you could also try brine shrimp if you want to give them live food.

how long have you had them, if theyre new, the may still be getting used to your tank and might not feel like eating yet

 

[Pokorny]

I have had them for about two weeks.

 

[420Loach]

hmm, they should be used to the tank by now. did you try the flake?

 

[Pokorny]

I will once i get home....Im at work right now

 

[420Loach]

ah ok

keep an eye on your dovii. these guys reach 25+ inches long and need close to a 300 gallon tank at adult size.

Those cichlids are really nice. They can reach to 30 inches in an aquarium, BEAST. I'd love one but I dont have the tank for it lol.
