How long ago did you get him? Other fish in tank? Water parameter?
I have had him for 3 days now. I have a pair of clownfish in the tank as well as two peppermint shrimp. All the paramaters are perfect, no changes at all
It’s possible he’s still adjusting to the tank. I don’t find it likely he’s being bullied, but may feel outcompetes for food do to shyness. Are you feeding sinking pellets, frozen foods, both?
I am feeding a mix of frozen mysis and sinking pellets
My only other hypothesis would be that the mix may be too big for him, and to try brine shrimp instead. However, if he’s not eating the pellets either, size may not be the issue. It may be worth a shot just to test something else! Or to maybe even crush up the pellets to smaller, easier to eat pieces. IMO, I think it’s still adjusting to the tank and should hopefully start eating within the next day or so. Maybe someone else on here has another idea
