I have had a medium sized naso for roughly 6 months. He has always eaten like a pig and has grown well. I noticed he wasn't eating today and his stomache has a pintched look. He is not active. My water is rock solid. I do not use a calcium reactor and have good orp. I have not changed anything in the tank and he is not being picked on. Nothing else is showing any signs of distress. The naso has no obvious signs of ich, velvet, hlle, or Popeye. Any suggestions or advice.

Just so I don't get water param questions

Weird. Do you hang nori or another seaweed for him to eat on?
 
Sorry but doesn't sound good at all. Have you tried a variety of food or soaked the food in garlic.

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

  • I haven’t really considered this before
