I bought my jardini two days ago and he is about 8'' Yesterday i fed him 3 small fish and since then he's been swimming at the bottom of the tank. today i put two super worms in and he is refusing to eat and just keeps swimming near the bottom. he is moving quickly and will occasionally swim higher in the tank but i am worried. any suggestions? thanks

^^ exactly right. Test all of your water parameters and post the results.
If all of that checks out we can explore other options.

if params are fine he's probably scared or over fed. give him some time. Another option is to observe him from a distance to see if he's scared of you or sth. also be wary of his beathing. if you noticed heavy breathing or sth like that, you may be having some problems.

i dont think there is anything to worry about..my jardini is about 3 weeks old now and its still scared of me and not adapted properly..some fishes take longer than the others..my silver aros adapted very quickly...just give your fish some time...
