I have a RES that I have had for about a week now, he is about the size of a ilver dollar or so. He is in a 45R tank with live plant, some other fish, ghost shrimp, and guppies. He seems to be ibbling on the plants, but will not eat the pellet food or live food. Tank temp is around 80F. The only thing I do not have is a UVA light righ now. I do have a basking area and a UVB bulb in it. He is swimming and being active, but just not eatng. Do I need to worry. Pics to come as soon as I find my camera. Thanks, Chuck
