Hello again, I was just recently at on of our LFS that was going out of business and they had a beautiful Synodontis Longirostris for sale. They were going to ship all the fish to another store in the chain in another state while the temperatures around here are close to 100 degrees. I didn't want to see the fish die, so I went ahead and purchased one, but now I cannot find feeding habits and food types for him. I have had him for two days and I haven't seen him feed, even though he comes out more often now. Any tips or food suggestions would help. Thank you.
New fish that I can't find feeding habits on

From my Baensch Aquarium Atlas Vol 2: feed them tablet foods, pellets and frozen foods. Very cool looking fish.

I did a quick search on this fish, but wasnt able to come up anything (mind you, I did a QUICK search!). It may be just the change in environment for him/her. I know sometimes when I introduce new fish, it takes them a few days before they are eager to eat!

Thank you for the advice. I have noticed that once the lights go out, the fish seems to dig around in the gravel and is uprooting my new plants. It doesn't seem to eat the plants just uproots the more shallow ones. What kind of sinking pellets? Shrimp pellets, blood worms, algae wafers? Thank you again for the information
