porcupine puffer not eating

My puffer looks very healthy, but within the past few weeks he's slowly eating less and less. Today he wont eat at all. He's also a lot less active. I purchased him from craigslist about 2 years ago so I have no idea how old he is (he was already about 9 inches at time of purchase). Could it be that he is dying from old age? I have 2 other tangs and they are still going strong as ever.

What are you water readings, including ammonia, nitrate, nitrite, pH, salinity? How is he doing with swimming/acting normal? What and how often are you feeding? Is he offered hard shelled foods to keep his teeth filed down?
