false percs wont eat!!!

[jurichar]

i need a quick bit of help if possible. I got 2 false percs from this site (aquacultured) and they have been inhabitants of my tank for about 4 days. When i try to feed them they get the food in their mouth and then they spit it out and try to eat it again and spit it out. I dont think they have managed to keep anything down for a few days now. The food i bought is "ocean nutrition" formula one marine pellets "small". Should i try a differnet kind of pellet food or what??? does anyone have recommendations?

Try frozen Mysis shrimp.

Could also try some brine shrimp and some prime reef too. I noticed my clowns like meaty foods mostly.

also cyclop-eeze is a great food to entice them. if nothing works try soaking the mysis shrimp or brine in some garlic juice that will entice them sometimes also.
