No offence, but how does that relate to helping his jar get eating lol.

and from personal experience they sometimes get stressed when out of the blue so many little fish are added
my jar even though was 7"+ did not like it when i added feeders
so no more feeders or any new fish

Its not reccomended that you feed feeders as they usually introduce parasites to your tank. Its best if you just go get some crickets, aros seem to be unable to resist them. And i find that most filters are overrated, they only measure the output without putting media into the filter itself, so the filter actually filters alot less when theres media in it. Might be a good idea to look into that.

Base on the location he puts "Cambodia" and the measurement unit he used is metric, feeders is commonly used to feed fish. Crickets and grasshoppers can be catch, but they're not available for sale

Give the aro some time. Usually aro doesn't eat well due to stress or poor quality condition. If your water is good, then it's only the stress.

If you catch any cricket or insect, feed the aro with the soft belly part, until he eats more consistently, then you can feed it whole cricket or insect. Good luck
