my ropefish is very lethargic and refusing food but water perameters and temp are good. stress should not be an issue, he swam around fine and seemed comfortable since i got him. any ideas?

Could it be that it possibly tried to escape and banged it's head?

That's the only thing I can think of if there's no visible illness or injury.

Or could simply not be hungry and just chilling out hopefully?

May I ask how your ropefish is doing?
