Hello,

I recieved an Albino ACF a couple of weeks ago when I got my new aquarium, but since then I believe he has gotten sick. He has developed green skin along his back and I haven't seen him eat ANYTHING since I got him. He was fed reptomin by his previous owner, but he hasn't taken any of the food I have given him, even if I hold him in my hand and gently rub the food across his mouth/snout. He is in a tank with some smaller fish, and I was almost sure he would eat one or two of them, but he has shown no aggression at all, and I am actually quite worried. I will end up giving him away, but I don't want him to die in the mean time. If anyone has any suggestions, please offer me your advice. Thank you.
 
What size tank do you have it in? What are the water conditions? What's the water temp? Try more smelly foods like bits of frozen shrimp, earthworms, sinking shrimp pellets.
 
It's a 29 gallon tank in the 76-78F range. Parameters are good, ammon, nitrate, nitrite at 0 or very low ppm, pH is approx. 7-7.5
