He is fully grown. He hasn't eaten in 4 days. He used to let me feed him straight from the net, BUT NOW THE FOOD JUST FALLS ON HIS FACE.

Not eating is common in sick fish or fish in poor water conditions. A normal healthy fish is a hungry fish. Be sure his tank and water are very clean and nothing is out of line in regards to normal water conditions. Look him over very carefully for any sign of disease.

It's very, very rare for a fish to go 4 days without eating for no reason at all.

not eatting is common and fishes can go awhile without eatting. Try changing the water and see if that helps. prehaps he knows something.

Also when you can the water, increase the water temp. increase in temp will increase the metabolism and generally make the fish eat.
