Hello! New member here.
I just got myself 2 sliders on Monday and I am just so ecstatic.
Been looking through the forum and I do try to do things right and make them feel as comfortable as they can.
I am a bit worried though as my 2 sliders does not seem to be eating.
They just don't seem to be interested in the food I give (I've tried both pellets and fresh vegetables).
They are quite small though, probably just about 2 inches. Any suggestions on how I can get them to eat?


Regards

Welcome to the forum! They might not be interested in veggies yet, I'd try some shrimp (gammarus) or even live prey (minnow).

I know that when I got Nemo, along with the other rescues, it took a few days for them to be comfortable eating. Maybe that could be the case?
