My arowana stopped eating!

Another thought:
Could this be the result of a lack of oxygen in the water?

 

[Rjrose835]

Is this an oxygen level problem?

Like others said if its just 1 day that he didnt eat he should be fine.

If its a lack of oxygen the fish would be breathing hard.

Have you tried crickets? I have yet to see an aro resist one!

I wouldnt worry about one or two days. Aros often go on hunger strikes for various reasons.

I just got myself a silver arowana same time as u, and same size as yours, and it has not taken a liking to the freeze dried plankton that the LFS sold to me. However it does love the mini hikari pellets i drop in there. I think its getting bigger already. Did u say u were giving urs krill?

I think he might be dying. He's doing worse than ever. What happened??

 

[Rjrose835]

He was fine for the last few weeks. He was eating well, the water was always good with ammonia, nitrites, nitrates, etc. He just stopped eating yesterday and now he's dying. What went wrong?

How is it dying? What are your params? wc schedule? Tank size?
