I have 2 angelfish which i have had for about 2 months. They have been fine in the tank for the whoel time until recently when one stopped eating. For the past week or so, it hasn't eaten much other than the occasional poke at a flake or an algae disk for the pleco. When it eats flakes, it chews and spits it back out. The other angel however, if perfectly fine and eats a tremendous amount. The size difference between the two angels have started to differ greatly. One looks must bigger and healthier with much nicer colors, while the one who doesn't eat hasn't grown much. Anyone know any way to make the little guy eat? or atleast what the problem might be? Thanks.

What are the water peramiters? What else is in the tank, plants, and fish, also the size of the tank.

Have you tried frozen blood worms 99% of fish love them.

Could be worth a try.

water temperature?? lower temps can slow the fishs metabolism.

i have a tall 20 gallon tank. there is only a pleco other than them in it. i have a large piece of driftwood and a few rocks. water temp is about 80 to 82, pretty high.
i tried the blood worms, but both of them don't seem to know what it is and just ignores it.

Do you have any plants for them to shelter in and under.

My knowledge/referance is a temp 80f-27c and a well planted tank.

Let me know if you figure anything out. I just got a new Angel 5 days ago and he won't eat at all. He just swims around slowly looking around, ignores all flakes, pellets and live black worms. =[

nevermind.. ;(
