My clown must have heard me asking in the "new to the hobby" section about adding another one and has decided to go on a hunger strike. She is swimming around fine and seems interested when I feed but just ignores the food. I've tried flake, pellet and brine shrimp and after the initial excitement she just ignores it. I've moved her to my QT so there is no competition for the food, but I'm not sure what could be wrong or what else to try and entice her to eat.

thanks

Try soaking the food in some Garlic Extrem.
