We gave one of five lyretail anthias that has been well for s year. She has been hiding the last three days. She had been the most aggressive eater in the tank, but now she comes out a short way with feeding for a short period, but does not eat
She appears well otherwise , no obvious marks.

Is there anything I can do to increase the chances that she will live?
 
Have you recently added anything wet to the tank?
 
New coral, macro algae, sand, rock, inverts?
 
New coral yes. Several new sps and chalices.
 
All were dipped in coral rx
Unfortunately the coral dips only remove coral pests. Fish parasites aren't removed. So it's possible you introduced something with the corals.
