[Jones2w]

I curreently have 8 fish in my 55 Gal 6 tiger barbs and 2 albino corys...I am slowly stocking my tank...1 of the barbs has not eaten for almost 2 days now...everytime i feed the fish its the only one not eating at all...any advice

[Jones2w]

i've tried everything from flake food to singking pellets to bloody worms

ya same time

 

[bra_van_drakh]

so, he hasnt eaten at all since u bought it ?? hmm .. .could it be ur water parameters that just this one cant cope. ..but he's still join the school rite ??? if he does, then i wouldnt be worried too much, since i usually feed my cardinals once every 2 days or more. ..

Maybe he is shy and still need a bit of time to settle in the tank.

It could be internal parasites or possibly something else. Make a post in the sick fish forum and be sure to read the sticky on what to include when making a new thread.
