anytips on how to get a copperbanded to eat?

I have had my copperband for two days now and he swims in the open i just cant get him to eat. I know that they are sometimes hard to get to eat and they are picky eaters. When should i start worrying?

To your question, I am always worried when any fish isn't eating. What are you trying to feed the CB? Is it picking at your rocks? Since they are naturally skinny fish, I would do everything possible entice feeding ASAP. You may want to try live brine shrimp. You may also want to buy a live clam or scallop from the grocery store... crack that open and leave it in the tank for a while.
