my asian aros are picky ... at least those that leave by themselves. The x-back that leaves in a large community is not picky eater ... learns quick or risk starving.

PS: RTCs are my unwanted food cleaners ^^

My RTGs appetite dropped off when it reached that size. It still doesn't eat much, then sometimes it'll pig out for a day. Variety helps but is a hassle, it means you have to have lots different foods. What live food are you using?

Dont give him anything thats "live" , feeders etc. just feed it shrimp and other sort of fish mostly. gonna try some crickets now tho too see how its eating . and thing is it looks like he wants to eat but "cant" beacsue he keeps biting the shrimp / spit it out and then chew it again .

That's normal, even like it's playing with it. It sounds bored of the food. Try crickest and super worms if you can get them. I have to feed mine different foods each week or so. otherwise it stops eating.
They can go weeks without food you know.
