Oscar Not eating >_>

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
When did you do these change's to the tank?maybe he's sulking from that......
water temp sometimes effects them, to warm they go spanish, manyana manyana....
My oscar now spend's a good half day laying on the bottom and watching the world go by but never misse's a meal.....
They are lazy thing's, total opp to when young

oscar used to be like that except with a touch of crazy he is used to that temp also i did changes ages ago he did not care but ever since i started melafix hes been acting strange :screwy:
 
mine stopped eating, and was wobbling to the side because she was constipated, try feeding peas.

i think he might be i got home not to long ago and he was asleep see tommrrow if there is any signs of hmm faeces but i jsut had a thought he has not eaten in ages so how could he have faeces :confused:

maybe he is bored i get some crickets maybe but bad luck with them.

what are you using the melafix for?

on and off dose for HITH and fins he has torn form being crazy finished bottle 3 days ago maybe i should trys peas but as stated in other post how? like prepartion wise i only have forzen peas.



EDIT: remeber he is not eating lol so how is he going to eat them.
 
dont use melafix now, just good waterchanges, thats what mine get if they have wounds or ripped fins.....
just do what i do.....get some hot water, grab maybe 10pea's chuck them in cup for about 2-3mins.....remove from water, peel of the outer layer and the pea is in two, split it a feed half at a time, to see what he thinks
