New baby silver stopped eating

[sunvalley aquarist]

Hi everyone,

As the title suggests my 3.5" baby doesn't appear to be eating.(in the last 2 to 3 days)
I've had the little guy for about 4 weeks. Been feeding krill broken up to mouth size pieces. Feeding the other fish freeze dried blackworms. He might be eating some of those, but they're so small after breaking off the cube, it's hard to tell.
Any ideas on what to try?

Thanks

Pat

They can sometimes go for a few days without eating. I would start by testing your water and letting us know what the parameters are. The more info you can give us, the better we can help you.

He's eating again. Started back up yesterday. I remember the silvers I've had before fasting, but I don't recall them doing so at such a small size.
Thanks for the reply.
