Does anyone know if I need to have any special feeding considerations for a tiger botia?

I feed fish in my tank flakes, shrimp pellets and an occasional zucchini.

The tiger botia seems to be doing fine, I've had him for a few months. I never actually see him eat, just digging around in the gravel alot.

Just wondering. Thanks.

MrCee,
Welcome aboard to Aquaria Central!
I had Botia's in the past. They seem to be nocturnal creatures, so you may not see them eat during the daytime. They are an interesting fish..

If you fed Frozen Bloodworms you'd see him eat. Almost no botia can resist them. Other than that, unless he looks skinney I wouldn't wqorry about it.
