How to entice an aro to eat?

[tom_wong88]

wah bro , really try to trow to the aro but doesnt work.

even go to longer way ( just dont laugh lar ) i tie the MP to a fishing line and tickle the aro really can not lar.....

really frustating , may be should use screw driver open the mouth than put in ( just kidding ) , should wait and wait some more lar

Can try other types of food like small frogs, crickets, small fish, etc.... if your water and environment is ok.

hmm.... so how's the water parimeters?

i think for new aro, let it settle down first..

my first rtg ..i put 2 feeders inside..first nite one feeder was gone...

the other feeder swam on for another 10 days before kena wacked

my 1.5 OTF aro..i hope that it will eat ( which it ate 1 sw last nite) as I understand from previous owner that it was not really feeding at his place and at previous previous owner oso...

I believe your aro is suffering from "New Tank Syndrome", being your tank is not cycled...

Cut down on feeding and let the tank cycle... introducing too much feed is just adding to the bio load...

As per Bro Alvin's advise, I would also suggest to stop water change or the time being...together with cut in feeding. This will allow the water to mature and cycled...

if the aro just moved, usually i don't feed for 2-3days. starve them a bit, so tat they be hungry, n when u feed them, they chiong for it, so shiok
