Lucky or Unlucky me....

Wiel my friend that bought that baby Senegal that was lost for 15 hours decided he doesn't want to invest any money in a cage etc. So he gave it to me. I put it in with the adult; I know shouldn't but didn't want it in the 10g glass tank. Problems:
1) Wife not happy I now have 2.
2) I don't have room for another cage and will be divorced if I get one.
3) The little guy drinks from the dripper with no problems, adult I have never seen drink.
4) I just have never seen it eat, my friend either. Maybe 1 or 2 crickets and thats all. Been about 2 weeks since he got it. The adult is a pig and have removes it so the other can eat but doesn't touch them. Any suggestions on housing and how to get it to eat?

Thanks

I would say sell the little one, at least you'll make a little bit of money and the little one will at least has a good place to live, in its own cage. Stress can cause it not to ewat and i assume its under a sh*t load of stress, but thats just my opinion you do what you want.
