My male hasn't been eatting for to days!!!

He moves around sometimes but he's not eatting


Please give me any info and tips to make him better


PLEASE HELP
I don't want him to die Hes my first
 
The temperature of your tank AFTER your heater broke is actually better/suitable for your FH more than previous of 74, way too low.

hes stressed get him to 80-82 degrees and check your water parameters. he will eat once hes not so stressed
 
Leave water temp at 80-86 and he'll recover in time. You gotta give them time to recover you know. I got fries that were out of the freezing cold in a a garage with no heater for a week, and thaey took one day to get back to normal.
 
Be patient.. But if he doesnt eat for another week. He may have internal parasite.
 
re-adjust your heater to 82 degrees f, at 86 degrees my Flowerhorn starts doing cart wheels......
