Its been 4days and my lionfish just stop eating!!! What do i do? Get him on some ghost shrimp? But i dont want to keep spending money on ghost shrimp for him. So what should i do? Different kind of food? Hes been eating shrimp and silver sides.

get an extra 10 gallon and start breeding ghost shrimp if u dont want to have to buy more every time he stops eating.

Sometimes they just do that, its natural. Mine does it every other month or so, just doesnt really wnat food. Stuff he goes crazy for, he just ugnores it. Then after a while he starts going after it again. Give it another day, and try wiggling the food around to get his attention...keep me posted

Once my lion stopped eating once was becuase the nitrites got a lil high, check your water peramerters.

he will eat the ghost shrimp but not the frozen food. Should i try to feed him squid?
