Hey guys, my rtc hasnt been eating for days, he is currently in a 150 gallon grow out tank with a couple pacu's. he is about 5-6 inches long. So heres the problem, he hasnt eaten as much in a week or so, he would ussually gobble up anything i give him such as shrimps, snail meat, live feeders, but recently he just stopped eating, ph is around 6.0, ammonia 0. So me being worried for my little friend, i force fed him. I put about as much feeders to make his belly bulge a bit. I am not that familiar with this method but have read a few threads about it. I would just like to know your thoughts on it, and if it would do more harm than good to my fish. Thanks.
