So just purchased my first wellso at my lfs was 25%off so got it close to $60, only problem it’s severely bleached. Question is fed it some pellets a little while ago and it accepted it, is there anything else I should be doing or should I just let it be to regain it’s color? Thank you Jose

Low light low flow and feed it every couple days. Should be fine. Doesn’t look bad from the photos though? Maybe it’s just the blues
Thank you, so it rejected the pellets and spit them back it should I try mysis tomorrow or should I not feed it for now?i have it in a low flow area and in the side of the tank indirect light.

I think mysis would be a better option than pellets. Give it a go.

I used to feed it pellets.
I soaked the pellets for 1-2 min for it to soften up to make it easier for them to intake.
Also, if they dont eat at the time you're feeding them, try a different time period.
