Have you tried any other types of food? Any recent additions to the tank or major changes like lighting or filtration? How long has it been since he hasn't eatin'? How often do you feed???

I got a true percula about 3 weeks ago and he doesn't seem to be interested in any food I've given him either. I tried:
  • live brine
    frozen brine cube
    formula 1
    frozen mysis cube
It eats a little bit of everything, but doesn't go crazy for anything.

I got a tank raised percula about 3 weeks ago and for the first 2 weeks he would not eat anything. Now he goes crazy for everything. I have read they can be picky eaters.
