1.5" Jar wont eat

[toehead11183]

i got a 1.5" jardini who refuses to eat. i have tried bloodworms, brine shrimp and parts of krill (all frozen) and tropical flakes. i cant find insects and fish small enough. pH 7.0, temp 78*F. in a 120 seperated from the other fish.

120g seems very large for a fish so small...

Mine was 2" and after only a few weeks he is 3.5 inches. Been feeding him aro stix and he loves them. He is so ferocious when he bits Down. Currently in a 40g breeder grow out tank with CL's.

younger fish are tricky like that, there is a HIGH change that if he's not touching those bloodworms than he could be sick, you should look into it

he's in a 12"x8"x6" refugium inside the tank. he looks perfect and just started a round of paraguard for the whole tank

Bring the temp up to 82, keep trying bloodworm, good luck.
