As I was feeding my tank as usual today after work, I just realise that my Naso ###### has suddenly become very skinny. As of today, I can see the belly has retracted inside and the ###### looks dull and skinny? It's not feeding anymore today. :(

I had this fish since August '04. It's a nice fish which has been feeding very well and active until i go to sleep yesterday night. I don't look at it this morning.

What could be the problem of such a drastic change, the rest of the fishes is still doing well.

Other inhabitants including Sailfin, Rabbitfish, 5 x Anthias, 1 x purple dartfish, 1 normal Naso, 1 cleaner wrasse, 1 x cleaner shrimp.

could very well be cyanide poisoning...

if it is really cyanide...you can wave bye bye to ur fish liaoz.

Cynaide? Keen to tell me more?

It's been a few months now since it's feeding. What are the effects of cynaide to a fish if they were caught using cynaide? How to tell and how long until the effect of cynaide become lethal to fish health?

Naso Elegans usually have an issue with water quality or something in your tank is bullying it...when it refuse to eat, it just refuse to eat.

I think my Naso is not refusing to eat.... it's a sudden change from big belly to skinny belly.....

How could it be possible? Since day 1 it's been eating like a pig... :blink:

Think it's some kind of internal stomach bacteria.

      FOC Coral Bandid Shrimp

      Hi, I'd need to give away my CBS named Shadow. He's a decent sized guy, been with me for a few months, a darling of a shrimp. But he's started attacking my small fish, fish have gone missing through the months, few have died the past week. Unsure him or anything else. My current fish are all healthy. Free of charge. Just promise to take good care of him. Please quarantine him first, or put him in a fishless setup for a few weeks. Self collect at Indus road. Cheers.
