Its hasn't been eating for over a week now and I am getting really concerned. . The temp is just fine (tropical country). I used to feed it farmed ID shark fillet(cream dory),mealworms, guppies. What can I do to help my snakeneck.
 
What are the conditions your keeping him? Tank size, deeph, etc. A week without eating its nothing to a adult turtle, could mean more for a young one tho.
 
What is the temp your keeping it? Increase it to about 28 degree celcius, ad some cork chunks, aquarium plastic plants and some bog wood for retreats, and increase your water deph. Now once setled introduce life blood worms and even small fresh water shrimp. Mosquito larvae is also very good stimulant. Your turt will be eating in no time:)
