I picked up a Banggai Cardinalfish the other day from Petco. He seems to have settled into QT and is doing well other than he won't eat pellets. All of my other fish have gone nuts over the TDO Chromaboost pellets, but this guy tastes them and spits them out. I tried adding some Selcon and Garlic Extract to them, but same results.
He goes absolutely nuts over frozen brine shrimp and also will pick at PE Calanus, but not as aggressively. I know he was eating pellets at Petco because that is what they were feeding.
Does anyone have any tips on the diet or food that has worked well for these fish? I'm open to trying some other non-frozen food. I like to feed 2-3x daily while they are in QT, but I don't really want to deal with frozen cubes multiple times a day and then have him refuse to eat anything else.
