Zebra Moray Eel Not Eating

[clem1999]

I bought a zebra moray 10 days ago. He is about 18" long and has not eaten anything yet that I have seen except a time when it looked like he stole a small piece of shrimp from a serpent star.
Should I be worried that he is not eating yet?
I have tried shrimp and squid. Should I be trying something different?
Is there anything I can do to entice him into eating a meal? He gets spooked with a feeding stick. If I place the food on the bottom every other fish and invert goes after the food.
What advice can you provide for each of these questions?
Thank you.

What r the other fish? R u missing any fish or inverts? Shrimp ECT? Generally eels arnt picky eaters. At least when healthy. You could try live food but that depends on your other fish

Mine got spooked by the tongs first too. It didn't take him 10 days to eat though and Ive had him now about 3 weeks and he's eatting like a champ. How long did your LFS have him before u bought him? I got mine the day after he came into the store and he's eatting just fine.

I used to feed my zebra with a clear tube that I bought from the lfs. Remember they are pretty blind. If you have any shrimp in the tank take a count.

Now mine isn't eatting. I'm going to try live food tomorrow.
