First, do not adapt to the new environment

Arowana is easy to eat when it is not adapted to the new environment or frightened. Although the appearance of Arowana looks very domineering, in fact, they are very timid. They will feel very scared and uneasy when they stay in an unaccustomed environment, and at the same time they will not eat.

Solution: If the arowana don't eat because they don't adapt to the new environment, the owner needs to wait for them to adapt to the new environment slowly, and then try to feed them food after they adapt to the new environment, and pay attention to keeping the environment stable during their adaptation.

Second, the water temperature is too low

Too low water temperature in the feeding environment will also affect the appetite of arowana, which will lead to its not eating. Arowana likes to live in an environment with water temperature around 30℃. If the water temperature is too low, it will affect their appetite and activity.

Solution: The owner first needs to slowly adjust the water temperature to the temperature that arowana feels suitable (about 30℃), and then try to feed arowana after it adapts to this temperature.

Third, indigestion

The arowana will stop eating when it has indigestion, and if the owner always feeds the arowana with indigestible food, it will easily lead to indigestion.

Solution: If the arowana has indigestion, the owner can appropriately raise the water temperature and speed up their generation to promote their digestion. Or you can feed them some probiotics to help them promote digestion.

Four, water hypoxia

If the feeding environment of arowana lacks oxygen, arowana will not eat in the absence of oxygen, which will seriously affect their normal activities and eating.

Solution: In this case, the owner needs to oxygenate the water in the fish tank as soon as possible to ensure that the dissolved oxygen in the water is sufficient. After the oxygen in the water is sufficient, the arowana will gradually return to normal.

The above is Dr. Paw Paw's introduction to the common causes and related treatment methods of the anosaurus, and it is suggested that the owner should take precautions to prevent the above situation from happening.
