Will Aros Starve to death?

[Vitor]

Same as my silver,about 1ft long, pellet trained, 2x daily, feed about 3-4 big carnivore pellets.

But I got a new 5ft tank, transfer it in,
While transfer, broke his barbel, so I trim both pretty short.

Since then , nv eat, like 4days Liao.
Thin like knife , ... Wonder it will just die or open his golden mouth....

Do get too worry, they will eat when they are hungry. Mine been fasting for about a month before it start eating again....

[shark]

no worry they will eat eventually..

I got once MP train my aro, almost more than 1 month then eat.. after that eat MP like no tomorrow. must have patience

Aro are choosy,dun spoilt them.when i try converting my 6yo rtg from sw,crickets to mp.he stops eating for at least 4mths.
But now,he can whack 10pcs of mid size mp without shell at one go.

usually they eat eventually ... when all conditions was met i believe aros would never starved themselves

I had a red which starve itself for months which is still alive.. bad water management from me..

so far not hunry enuff,

will just drop a carnivore stick on surface (daily change)

Logically if you provide food, they will eat if they are healthy.
Just met a very weird guy at the LFS the other day.... Came to talk to me.
Told me he cannot feed live or raw food so starve his aro for one year and eventually died.
