In my AE86
My palmas bichir for some reason is not eating for a week now. I would put a shirmp in front of him and he would put a little in his mouth and then spit it out. Has anyone ever came across this type of problem and knows what is the best remedy. My last feeding before the shrimps was beef heart, and tilapia. All my other bichirs eat the samething, but for some reason my palmas just stopped eating.

parasites?
But also remember sometimes Bichirs can be funny buggers with food.
Give it a few more days.
Hopefully its not parasites. One of my other bichirs was like that but it was becuse he was new and it took him awhile to start eating, but i dont know why all of a sudden my palmas stopped eating. Plus my palmas was the only bichir that was really active when I started dropping food in the tank and he would start eating like crazy.
