Hello all,
Ive had my snowflake eel for about five moths or so, and the past couple of weeks he hasnt been eating. He used to eat a few times a week, would come out and get the food pretty quickly when i put it in the water. He loved silversides and i would also feed him clams. Now he doesnt come after anything, ive also tried shrimp and squid. He still acts pretty normal head poking out from his spot, will come and and swim around the tank from time to time. The other fish in the tank are acting normal, and they dont really bother the eel. Parameters i believe are fine, but i am gonna take them to the lfs tomorrow so they can check. Ive heard eels can go on "hunger strikes" from time to time. Just a little concerned and would like any input and help.
Thanks!!
