My Fahaka has gone of his food

Post by Neilsie »

I have had my 7" Fahaka for 2 mths now and I was feeding him mussels and river shrimp but he appears to have all of a sudden gone of his food any suggestions why this is ? He still appears very healthy swimming about my tank.

Sometimes puffers will go through a phase where they aren't hungry. I think of it like my kids. Sometimes they eat everything in the house, sometimes I can't get them to eat anything. Just keep offering the food and removing anything uneaten. Check the water parameters, make sure he's not stressed.
