I got a new motoro pup about 5 Inch small in my tank for about 4 days. Still not eatting. I tried to feed frozen blood worm but it keep ignoring it. Scared to starve him to death.... I also have an sliver arowana about 15inch. They are in 5x3x2 fiber glass tank.

Try chopped worms, earth worms, night crawlers, what was it eating at the previous owners place
 
She's obviously stressed. Ray pups that size should be eager to eat so something went wrong during introduction to your fgt and water parameters. I would test my water and keep the lights off. If you have access to live ghost shrimp you can use them to temp her to hunt for her food. Good luck and keep us posted

Ammonia and nitrite were 0 and nitrite about 40.
The reason I scared to feed ghost shrimp was either it will get sucked by the water pump or too big for him to eat. But I will try tonight
 
Do u have any other tank mates in their if so then remove the ones that are taking his food I also suggest putting it by him so he can just go over and eat it, bloodworms won't do u need worms black worms, earth, if too big chop into small pieces
 
I have 1 sliver aro about 15 inch. My ray may be scared when my arowana eating the sink fbw, my ray swim off quickly
 
There's some lines on the disk and belly look like bending in... The disk near the tail look like biten but I'm sure it have nothing to do with my arowana
