trust me...just continue giving the sinking pellets...he will learn to love them in no time at all...just persevere and keep giving the pellets every other day until he eats them. if u keep changing food then he will never adapt. they r generally not fussy...shouldnt take more than a week! and btw my RTC/TSN hybrid ate a jardini that was the same length as him...duno how it fit in the belly :sjarbunny;1461243;1461243 said:I have a question about my newly acquired RTC :O
So I just bought this guy yesterday, because at only C14.99 I couldn't turn it down.
Anyways, hes about 4 inches, and in a 20 gallon tank with my 3 inch jardini arowana before I can upgrade their tank.
Anyways, I threw a piece of driftwood in the tank to give the RTC some security, and its taken to it very well. My only dilemma is that I don't think my RTC is eating
I put in some sinking pellets that my paroon shark used to LOVE, and the RTC didn't even touch them. I put some sinking shrimp pellets, and no luck with those either.
However, when I was feeding my small jardini some bloodworms, a few of the worms fell to the bottom of the tank, and I figured that the RTC would eat the leftover worms during his 'night-prowl'. Though I admit that most of the bloodworms from the bottom of the tank are gone, they could've just been sucked up by my powerhead and whatnot.
So, do you guys have any advice on what to feed my RTC before he decides to devour my jardiniI personally think he could do it, but I chose to house him with the arowana because I figured that they would probably never come into contact, seeing as the arowana is a top-swimmer and the RTC dwells on the bottom.
Any help to get my RTC eating would be great

Great thread with some awesome info! To the guys with the MablexRTC hybrids, any chance of updated pics? That would be a cross of my two favorite cats and I would love to learn more about them. Otherwise I'll be looking into a RTC when I have a for sure place to house the monster.
Thanks again for the great thread! I just read it "cover to cover"

Tnx blurock. I hope others are able to keep this cat to a large size. I'd hate to be the only one! It's nice to say, but it's sad at the same time. Some people have trouble with cats that I have no trouble with, and I seem to have trouble with some cats others seem to have no trouble with lol.
If you have the means to take care of them when they are that big, I get the feeling that they are awesome fish. I can't wait to try my hand at one when I have the space for em
