It is normal for newly bought silver arowana not to eat, because they are less daring, and they will feel uneasy and afraid in the new environment. Moreover, when they enter the new environment, their appetite and activity will also decrease. Breeders don't need to feed in a hurry when they just buy it home, but can keep the surrounding environment stable first. It is best to keep the water temperature at about 28 ℃ and try not to change the water within one week. After they adapt to the new environment, try to feed food.
How to do if the newly bought silver arowana doesn't eat and how to feed it correctly 1. What should I do if the newly bought silver arowana doesn't eat

It is normal for the newly bought silver arowana not to eat, because they are sensitive to the changes of the environment, and when they arrive in a new environment, they will also have fear and uneasiness. Some silver arowana will have decreased resistance and immunity after changing the environment. In addition, although silver arowana looks fierce, they are timid, especially in the new environment, and are easily frightened. Therefore, it is normal for the silver arowana that has just been bought home not to eat, and the breeder need not worry about feeding at this time. As long as they live in a comfortable environment and try to avoid being frightened, after about 3-5 days, the silver arowana can adapt to the new environment, and then feed them food.

2. How to feed Silver Arowana correctly

1. Food choice: Silver Arowana prefers animal feed. When artificially raised, they can be fed more live bait such as small fish, shrimp, loach, snail and earthworm, and also lean meat and animal viscera, so as to ensure their adequate nutrition.

2. Feeding method: Silver Arowana lives in the upper layer, so it is best for breeders to choose floating feed to feed them. If you feed live bait or other meat, you can tie it with fishing line and put it on the water. This can prevent them from falling off their eyes and tails.
