    Default I got over my fear!

    Grunt stopped eating and I thought it might go away. I tried every day and then figured that he might just need a poop, put him in a warm (dechorinated) soak, and EUREKA! He had a big poop. But, still wouldn`t eat. One day I just finally had enough, slapped some gloves on, picked him up (not for long), then force fed him. I was surprised how not scary he really is haha. But, I have had to force feed him twice, not sure what is going on there, but will figure it out.

    Force feed him as necessary. Offer food like normal and if he doesn't eat force feed him until he is at a good weight to hold out and just offer food in his tank fir a while. If he continues to refuse food resort back to force feeding if he begins to lose weight.
