Hi All
Hope somebody can help me out here , My Fuzzy Dwarf recently stopped feeding. I've had him a while now ,9 or 10 months or so he's been feeding fine since day one no problem at all , but just recently he seems to have lost all interest in any sorts of food , main diet has been lance fish takes it from my fingers great no probs then he just stopped , been trying some different types of food such as prawn but just not interested. any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
Andy

i've read it can help placing the food in front of a powerhead and releasing to give it a bit of life like movement. How long has it not been feeding?

I wouldn't worry too much about starvation at this point, a well fed fish can last a very long time. What I would be more concerned about is general health, keep a close eye for anything out of the ordinary and double check water quality - maybe do a precautionary water change.

Cheers , see how it goes ,

The longest I've had a lionfish not feed for is around 4-5 weeks. It remained healthy, albeit a little thin. A hungry lionfish is a brave lionfish though and should soon start eating again. In their natural settings, they may go a few days without food so their a bit spoilt in our tanks. You could also try a different food.

Cheers
