live blood worm, meal worm, live black worm will do the magic for you. don't give up, try 3 times a day. hope it helps.
 
ask the store what they were feeding it. I always ask to see the fish eat before I buy. especially finicky eaters like baby aros.
 
let the arrow adjust and check your water perimeters. are you new to fish keeping? did you cycle your tank properly? pictures?



p.s please try to use correct grammar its a little hard to understand what your trying to say :p


x2... got to let your tank cycle properly... from experience, new water will cause ich to start up... I hate to be the one to bring you the bad news, but your aro will have about 2-3 days before gill function stops... in this case, to try to save the aro, i would raise the temp in the tank to 85 degrees, take out the carbon from your filter and add copper to the tank to help kill any bad bacteria... add carbon back in about 2 weeks... goodluck...
 
yup check out the api medication in powder formala and follow the instruction then for remove the carbon filter off you tank.
