My second Paroon shark had iches before, now fully recovered but not eating, tried to give pellets and feeder carps but didn't eat, need some advices thanks
 
The fish is still sick. Ich treatment does not work immediately and can take about 2 weeks to fully work.
Sick fish often have reduced appetites.
 
If the water tests show good results and the fish is stress-free otherwise, it will feed when hungry. And conversely, if something is off with the water or the fish is stressed in some other way than inadequate water, it may not gain an appetite.
