Hey guys,
The saga of the Runt Convict continues! The rest of the Convicts have been moved to my 20G (sharing it peacefully with the Red Zebras!!!) They're now over 1"
Meanwhile the little runt, is still less than 1/2". He/She/It seems happy, schools with the tetras (which I find hillarious) And is becoming quite aggresive over his 'territory'.
But yet, he remains less than a 1/2" in size. He litterally has shown little or no growth in the last 3-4 weeks.
My real concern is it seems to be really un-interested in food. Totally ignores any food in the tank, tho he'll nibble if something passes directly in front of him. The other 3 are at the surface begging for food if I even walk by the tank.
Should I just give up on him (no intentions of keeping him anyway, just waiting until he's closer to 1.5" so he too can go to the pet store) Or just wait and see what happens?
Andy
