I purchased two Fathead Anthias (sometimes called sunburst -- Serranocirrhitus latus). For about a week I have had them in a breeders net inside my display tank. I was hoping to introduce them slowly to the "community" and make sure they were eating.

I have not seen them eat anything. I have tried flakes, pellets, live brine, PE mysis and a food mix from Blue Zoo aquatics that all my fish go nuts for.

Not sure what to do next. Should i just wait? Should I try another food? Would they be more likely to eat if they were released in the tank? Are they "shy" and must be eating when I am not watching?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.
