i have 2 silver arowanas 14" long, for some reason they stop eating 2 weeks ago. they did that when i put them in their new tank but that was in the summer. they have been eating well and out of no were they stop eating. i do a 50% water change every weekend
the only thing different is the temp
over the summer it was from 75* to 78* summer temp
and now is 69* to 71* winter temp
i know the temp is a little cold but they always eat at those temp

Get a heater in that tank...your summer temp is just about pushing the recommended temp range...

I would have to agree, why are you not running a heater?
 
I would think it is directly related to the temperature. I had a heater go bad in my 220, and the tank dropped to 73 degrees and my aro also stopped eating. It has been replaced and my aro still is not eating, but I think it is due to bullying.
