i have a 14-15inch super red aro. i just got him about a mth ago
yet its strange last water change he goes on a strike almost 2 wks now he only like eats
4 super worms yesterday and give up on me again after two weeks of not eating
water prems are fine he is in a 522 tank and with a few tin foil barbs
till when can this beauty of mine start eating again???

atleast some food goes in his tummy...In time it will start to eat properly...Nothing to worry

if you've only had him a month its not long give him time when he feels secure he will start eating - If your tank is big enough & your filters are good he should be fine.
Mine took six or 7 weeks before he would eat, after 4-5 months he was chasing my American Bulldog as he walked passed the tank - they gain confidence in time if they are looked after properly
