So recently my lady honey stopped eating, which is very odd for her as shes normally extremely prey driven (normally i can just tap on the tank and she comes running). Is this something i should be concerned about/When should i be concerned?

Last week she wouldnt eat, this week she isnt either (she did show some interest earlier but pretty quickly started ignoring me) so its been about 2 weeks maybe 2 and 1/2. Could this be just her on hunger strike, her needing to lay eggs (not paired/never intend to), or possibly something else? (god forbid impaction, and if she was is there any way to tell externally from under her belly?)

i havent noticed any weight loss or anything else thats abnormal for her, just the not wanting to eat. Ive had her for just over 2 years, and she was pretty young when i got her (still had significant baby markings)

any help would be extremely appreciated, thank you :))

Nqa I think it’s near or breeding season so that might have something to do with it? I’ve seen a lot of people say their Leo went on a food strike for (I believe) this reason as well, I’m pretty sure as long as your Leo isn’t lethargic or anything and she’s still moving around fine as well as maintaining the same general weight you’re okay (again nqa for all of this)
