Fish Not Eating

[emzy991]

have a bgk that has not eaten for at least a week now - posted in emergancies about him. just wondering how long he can go before this will add to the issues I already have with him?

Hard to say, depends on how healthy the fish was before you rescued it about a week ago.

Have you tried offering an earthworm, ideally from a chemical free garden?

had wee one looking last night lol - not a one to be found . tried using a pipet when giving blood worm so was close to him but making no effort at all.
he's still pretty much vertical atm - 50% daily changes & melafix is bout all I can do really - he has some damage - told it was a loach & black fin shark having a go at him. some minor fin damage and some marks Im assuming caused by the loach.
bit suspicious bout the whole thing as P@H got told one thing but we were told different . supposedly swimming fine before but as soon as he was in the tank it was noticable
