I currently have my 5.5" LSN in a 56 gal. with my 4.5" RTC. I have had him and the RTC for three months without any problems, then this last monday he started refusing feeders, so I tried giving him red wigglers,krill,black worms, etc...
anyway, he still has yet to eat anything. I doudt he's sick, as he still behaves exactly the same as usual ( except for the not eating part), and has no oddities as far as looks go. the RTC has had no problems of any sort.

so I have to ask what I should do to try and get him eating again?
 
Is thr RTC bothering him at all??Try feeding the Lima raw shrimp(from the store)try hand feeding the LSN so that your sure the Lima is getting the shrimp.By the way what is the temp of your tank??Try raising it a little that may bring his appetite back.Sometimes fish get bored with the same type of food.Also you know that you will need a few upgrades of tank sizes in the near future right??Good luck and dont give up!!
 
yup, I am aware of the need for a tank upgrade (or 5:ROFL:) in the future.
I'm sure that the RTC isn't bothering him, they both have they're own areas they stay around in the tank. And I have been feeding them both by hand since I got them (except for red & black worms), so I'm sure the RTC isn't stealing his meals. but I hadnt thought of trying market shrimp with them, but then again I would probably have to use salad shrimp with them(due to they're size). and I'll boost up the temp. a bit. thanks for the suggestions.
