Thread: EEL acting ODD

  1. #1

    Default EEL acting ODD

    So as many know my tank has recently cycled my parameters are amonia 0 nitrates 0 nitrites 0 I do have the brown alage and some hair alage normal normally for my tank went through it last time. So the eel is NOT eating. He doesn't even look at the food. I feed frozen krill. Normal I hand feed him and he is quick to eat. But now since i got him back from my babysitter he is not as active as normal. Frosty is a snowflake eel. any ideas? he just sits and pouts to say. not breathing hard just not active or eating.

    You just readded him this weekend, right? Give him some time -- probably readjusting after the move Just keep offering what he normally eats -- try offering up some variety.. PE Mysis has been known to affect a feeding response, due to its fattiness.. Squid/shrimp/clam from HEB could be used as well..

    It took my snowflake a week to consider food. Which led to hand feeding, which led to cut fingers, which led to the trade in for another fish.
