Transporter Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 Hi Members, I have African cichlids & I have one fish a Venuscus (beautiful looking fish) who doesnt want to eat. When its feeding time all the others come up to eat, this fella isnt interested in eating. i drop food into where he is sitting but he is in no rush to eat. Unless he eats after I leave the room, What can i do. Thanks The Transporter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishie4me Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 more description might help mate, like how long has he been in the tank(recently intordueced or has been in there)? the size he is compared to other tankmates as he might be gettingpicked on, also he just might be stressed out due to come problem with th esetup, is he swimming around in the tank at all?, or just lying in a corner or on the bottome of the tank?

Donbennie Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 more likely he's been recently introduced? that would be my 1st guess, some fish tend to adjust to a new environment slower than others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bit Racer Posted January 6, 2004 Share Posted January 6, 2004 Do you know if he is a definite male. He could be a holding female. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
