My Aro need help

Mitsu.Ralliart · 05-03-2005, 01:25 AM

He used to stay in a 4ft*1.5ft*1.5ft tank until 3rd Feb, then i transfered him to a 5ft*2ft*2ft tank. E new tank have been cycle for a week or so.
He is super active, swimming around, wacking e STs but not e feeders.
Until now he had only taken 3 SW after i had added one dose of 7ml S7 to the tank and thats about 2-3 weeks ago. After that he had stop eating even when i have added e 2nd and 3rd dose of S7. I had even increase e dose to 8-9ml on the 3rd dose.
I have added about 6 plastic spoon full of salt to e tank but still he wouldn't eat. But it make him wack e STs even more often.
A spare powerhead was added to e tank just now, as i have heard that this method might increase his appetite. Hope it will help, as he is becoming more and more skinny by e day.....
I have tried all type of feeders except crickets. Might get a box tomorrow if he refuse to eat again.
