[sharkman]

please help my bala shark is not eating anything the water has been checked and is fine also the bala shark is really skinny iam getting concerned plz reply sharkman

Damn, I don't know. The only thing I can suggest is to try to feed him every type of food bala sharks like, but then again it seems like he would eat just about anything if he was going to. Sorry to hear about that, hope he pulls out of it

What is it you're trying to feed him? Try feeding him small sinking pellets or frozen bloodworms. I've noticed that in most cases, Balas show no interest in flakes.

Then again, the Balas I am talking about are where I work..Good luck, though.

[moricollins]

how big is your tank? that might have contributed to the loss of appetite
