Perhaps I might have to. They've been together since the start of January without issues though. It's always been that way.
GT that won't eat?

Looks good when did it start eating again? Did you have to change anything or did it just decide to start eating again on its own?
It's still not eating lol. This is why im so puzzled. It looks great (not a high quality fish though) after 5+weeks of not eating!
That fish has been eating to look as good as it does. It's been scavenging the tank. A fish that hasn't been eating for that long would look thin. I honestly think it is eating left-overs from the rocks watch right around 20 seconds into the vid.
It digs a fair bit. You could be right and it may just be scavenging. I think it was just going to the surface for a "breath". There was no food at the surface at this time.
Hi there, I believe that your GT is a female. She's a beauty!
An indicator for me would be the color of the pectoral fins because males tend to have colorful ones.
I'm not quite sure why it's not accepting food that it usually likes but a simple guess would be maybe new teeth are coming out?
Try soaking the pellets somewhere else then dropping it in the tank once they are softer.
It also could be a genetic thing, maybe in the wild they usually have some sort of ritual or a certain food source they look for once they reach that size?
This is all speculation on my part but hopefully your GT starts eating again!
