I've got a about a 3 1/2inch green terror, I've had her (i think) for about 2-3months now and she just stopped eating. She used to be a monster and ate everything. I was using small slow sinking pellets and frozen brine shrimp she loved them. When she stopped I tried larger pellets, freeze dried shrimp, blood worms, and even adding garlic oil to her food and nothing works... I even tossed a few feeder fish in there and she wont even kill them... Before she killed another GT and a convict. Please help, shes my baby and I'm worried :[
 
hi there . . . I don't want to jump to any conclusions, so I'm gonna ask a bunch of questions, some of which might help:

has anything changed in the tank recently? did you add anything new, or take anything away? is your GT behaving oddly in other ways (listless? flashing? swimming more? swimming less? hiding?)

have you noticed any indications of parasites, like a sunken belly or white, stringy poo?

lastly, do you know what your water parameters are? ammonia, nitrites, nitrates? how often do you change water and how much?

that's a lot of questions . . . as much info as you can provide might help me or someone else give you some feedback . . . good luck
 
try peas !!
