My fishes won't eat?!! Help please??!!

Question

They are oscars, i have 3, but they all stopped eating all of a sudden! I've tried feeding them every day, but they just look at it...And i have also tried feeding them ham; they love that, but they didn't eat that either! And they all just sit in a corner, and they never move, they used to swim around the fish tank all the time, but they don't do that either... I'm really thinking that they are going to die now, And there are worms all in the fish tank...I've looked up a lot of type of worms, but none of those worms describe the ones they have...Theirs are clear, you can barely see them, And they are about half an inch...But idk why they have worms...The water is really clear, and I clean it every week, but they won't go away! And one of my oscar's looks like he has tail rot, but i'm not sure if it is or not?? How is Tail rot caused?

Please help!!?? :)

Answer 1

I'm not really sure what type of worms are in there but they could be the cause of the bahavoir along with water quality issues. I would ask a pro or someone who has oscars. Meds are prob the easy way to fox the problem but you need to know what's wrong first to get the right ones. I hope you find an answer and get your fish back to normal. P.S. Your really pretty, good luck          

Answer 2

Try not feeding them for a few days, then try again. if they get hungry enough, they'll eat. always works for me

Answer 3

Do you have a tank that's like, 100 gallons?  If not, that could be your problem.

Answer 4

Poor water quality causes fin rot. There is something wrong with your water. Do ALL of the tests, ph, ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, gh/kh etc. Don't feed them for a few days because just dropping food into their tank is just going to make the water quality worse. Go to your local aquarium shop and ask for help.

Answer 5
