Hey I have had my BGK for a about 4 days and the first two days he would eat out of my hand but yesterday my wife tried to feed him (which he eats out of her hand too) and he only ate a little bit of food and last night he wouldn't eat anything I tried to feed him. He ate alot of food the first couple of days too. Is this normal?

Exactly how much food were you giving your BGK, and how often? Also, what kind of food was it? It might be that the fish is not very hungry, or it might no longer like what you're giving it.



And when he gets to Heaven, to Saint Peter he will tell: "One more Marine reporting, Sir! I've served my time in Hell."

I was feeding it some blood worms and frozen brine shrimp. My wife said that he did eat last night and today though. Also he ate some tubiflex that we put in for our Dojo Loaches. I guess he must not of been hungry at his "normal" time last night. And we feed him twice a day.
