Classic Question…?
I tried searching this question in Yahoo Answers and nothing seemed quite right in answering my concerns.
Classic question…my betta fish is not eating.
He hasn’t eaten in about two to three days. I have tried feeding him Hikari betta pellets, frozen bloodworms, and frozen brine shrimp and he is eating nothing. My water parameters look good (Ammonia and nitrite at zero and nitrate at about five). My temperature is at 78 degrees and has stayed constant. It is a 55 gallon with 8 zebras, 5 neons, 1 dwarf gourami and 6 ghost shrimp. Right now he is in an isolation / breeder net box, so I can see him easily. The only thing that really makes this question different from the similar ones, is that, when I look down on him, it looks like his body is crooked, almost like a crooked spine. Could this have something to do with his loss of appetite?
Please help. I will post additional details as needed.
P.S. The pet store didn’t seem to help too much in suggestions, so I come to you.
Pet store suggested trying the 7-day food blocks so he can eat at his leisure, but I don’t know if this help in addressing the issue.

Oscar attacking his reflection? Not eating right?
Lately my O’s been attacking his reflection, I’m worried that he’s going to get too stressed out and make himself sick. Is there something I can do to stop him from frizzing out so much?
Also, we bought frozen brine shrimp and he ate that fine, but we bought frozen bloodworms and he won’t eat them, he’s even stopped eating the pellets that he was eating before….is he just being picky?
He’s not a betta….he’s an Oscar.
