Flowerhorn Cichlid NOT eating?

hey,





Recently I purchased a young flower horn. Everything seemed normal at first. But I noticed it was spitting back out the cichlid pellets i was feeding him/her. It also seems to be a afraid of me, running away in the opposite direction when i approach it. Can anyone help me?





the help is greatly appreciated

Reply:so? isnt it a fish? if its a fish then its probly normal.


try feeding it a different type of food maybe flakes. if it doesnt help just give it a fish food like a goldfish food.
Reply:They do that, they suck in the food and then spit it out, as long as the water is healthy and the fish is healthy, then he should be fine. Spitting the food out is normal, did you try feeding him bloodworms, brineshrimp, or cichlid flakes?? That is what I feed my cichlid, they are suppost to be on bloodworms and brineshrimp mainly but they perfer brineshrimp. I have the freeze dried. My cichlid swim away from me too when I aproach them.





There are some fish that freak out over the smallest things because you look like an empire state building compared to him. Some other fish will come up to the glass and follow your finger lol, leopard puffers do that. I dont think it is anything to really worry about, just dont over feed him, see if you can try the brine shrimp or bloodworms. Another thing, cichlids can be pretty picky about their food so I recommend those choices.

Im having the same problem,do you see any white mucous hanging from the fish%26#039;s anus ?


If yes,shes probably infected with Hexamita,you should search the internet for the details.





GoodLuck !
