After a flowerhorn arrives, do not feed right away; wait 3 to 5 days. Newly arrived fish are stressed and tense and eat little, and a few days of fasting does no harm.
Flowerhorns adapt fairly well and usually settle in within 3 days with appetite returning, so feed after they know the environment.
