Default Bala Shark Not eating

I have 1 Bala Shark it is about 5 Inches long and he doesnt eat , he swims up and down the walls of the side of the tank all day and night and doesnt eat, atleast i dont see him eat...i feed my fish just regular fish flakes and all of the other fish eat except for him. Is there a reason he just swims up and down the walls all day and does not eat? Thanks

Might be internal parasites. I'm not very sure now.
