So, I’m trying to save 3 fish. The rest died from velvet in my tank. Fish are in QT, day 3. Treating with copper. They nibbled at food yesterday. Today I put some food in the tank and they literally just stared at it. I have the garlic guard and put a few drops in with the food.
what can I do to get these guys to eat. Is there a specific way to prepare the food?

put some mysis in there. If they aren't gonna eat that they they probably aren't interested in eating right now. or worst case get some masstick.

I
Try some tempting food like live brine, mysis, blood worms maybe. Depends on the fish. What kind are they?
Just keep an eye on ammonia.
used mysis no interest. But like everyone’s saying
They don’t want that. They want a cheeseburger and fries. Sorry trying to lighten the mood. Hope they start eating. Live food like baby brine will usually get a fish eating

Bro I’d gladly get them a burger and fries. I know where to get the brine so I’ll head there soon
