How Often Do Jawfish Feed?

[kevin34]

I have a tiger jawfish in QT that went through a rough shipment. I got it to eat mysis and brine everyday I have had it so far (since the 24th). I never eats much but it does eat except for today. They arnt a very active fish so is it normal for them to not eat everyday? Also he doesnt go after the food himself. I have to shoot it right at him with a syringe.

jawfish can be kind of shy at first, and mostly they will only eat food around their cave/burrow in my experience.
Just keep offering him food, and squirting it next to his home. He is just being 'needy' and probably is a little bit scared

Good Luck
