Ugh... I'm setting up a quarantine for my anthias. She hasn't eaten for a few days and is always hiding. Hopefully ill be able to help her, but not looking good.

Have you tried soaking the food in garlic?

Yes, I feed LRS which has garlic and selcon mixed in and I also feed normal mysis. I'm hoping in a quarantine she feels more comfortable to eat. And, if she does have something wrong, at least I can treat her once I get the medication.

And if you look for a partner or even another female, I don't think it has anything to do with it, but since they are schooling fish, both of mine are females, sometimes they fight but almost always together.

That might be a good idea to do while she is already in the QT, if she makes it. I'll look into it!
