    Default Discus won't eat, spit out food

    First it was 1 discus that stopped eating for a couple weeks, and now the whole tank won't eat anymore. I would feed the blackworm flakes and they won't come up. If the flakes fall to the bottom of the tank, they would chew on it and then spit it out.

    Is this worms? Any remedies?

    Hi Jeff,
    Hard to say without more information, but it does sound like what happens when they get some kind of bug. Let's move this to the emergency room section. Please fill out the questionnaire with as much info as you can.

    I posted in the general because I can never get any responses in the disease section and it takes too long, sometimes discus ends up dying to get a response.

    You are best off getting all the right information from the selected group of people qualified to help you in the 'emergency room' rather than information on here that may do more harm than good.

    Hope you find the write remedy for your problem
