mine wouldnt eat at first either. Try airsoft bb sized ramshorn snails. They will go nuts for those. Also try some live black worms. I have never had a fish that likes the frozen blood worms... ((cant blame them.))

what did you treat him with.

I put jungle fizz tablets in a cup with tank water and then you can let your food soak in the water to soak up the meds. Unless you can get your hands on a needle and then you can just inject them into the med directly.

DId you put a whole tab in the cup or just a 1/4 of one

Also what food did you use. What would he be more likely to eat.

i put these tabs into my tank itsself. lol. ((it took 3 boxes)) I should of just soaked the food...

When I've soaked food in the Jungle fizz tabs, I use 1/4 of a tablet, and I usually soak or inject a piece of jumbo shrimp, as that seems to hold the liquid best.

Used 1/4-1/2 of a tablet. I injected it into an earthworm and he sucked it right up, but shrimp should work good too

Thank You

do you just give him one treatment or for a couple days straight.

couple of days, 5 or so

Try to feed the med-food 2x/day for at least 3 days.
