Help: cooperband fish not eatting sitll...

[mike31154]

Beautiful fish, but I too made the mistake of buying one without ensuring it was eating at the LFS and not researching properly prior to making the purchase. I was new to the hobby and it was just such a fine looking specimen. It did ok for a little while but eventually starved in my tank, not a pretty sight. Second mistake was not taking it back before it starved, although I'm not sure it would have survived at the LFS either.

Not much help, I know, but if he doesn't start eating soon, I would consider returning him to the LFS.
