F/W Flounder

[glockmod21]

I have what appears to be a fresh water flounder. White underside brown spotted upper side w/ two eyes on top. What I'm looking for is information as to where they came from and what to feed them. This guy seems to hang on the side of the glass all the time and does not seem to eat any of the variaties of food I give him (flake food, shrimp pellets). He has to be eating somthing 'cause I've had him for a month now. TIA for your help....

I'm really just conjecturing here, but I want to say that they can be difficult in captivity because they don't want to eat anything but live. Keep plenty of salt in the water (know its FW, but make sure you've got plenty of FW salt in there) Maybe try some ghost/grass/glass shrimp for him or some gammarus if your LFS sells them.

Hey Glockmod21, I just bought the Glock model 27 sub-compact .40 S&W. I also have the model 19. Assuming you have one "Glockmod21"...Oh and... Welcome to Reefland! [img]/ubb/biggrin.gif[/img]

Thank you for the welcome and it's nice to know another aquarium is protected by the best. I also carry the sub-compact Mod 30. I would not trade them for anything.
