Recently got my hands on two Fu Manchu lions. Both about 3+inches long, healthy although the smaller of the two seems a bit skinny. I got them both to take live ghost shrimp the day after they arrived. The larger took two, the smaller took one. A good start, until I came home that night and one seemed to have regurgitated one of the shrimp.
No big deal, I thought, maybe the ol' eyes-too-big-for-the-stomach. Cut to today, neither wanted to eat this morning, which I figured no big deal since they had ate the day before. However, I check on them earlier tonight, and I find two more regurgitated shrimp, which means they spit up every one they took.
Any ideas as to why they could be doing this? They're sharing a large acclimation box, which they don't seem to mind, no outward aggression or posturing. They seem to be spitting them up at night after the lights go out.
