My Boxfish stopped eating

[coralcroucher05]

I have had my Boxfish for around 4 days. Was acting completely normal until this morning when I went to feed him and he was completely uninterested in the food which is very A normal because he usually devours his food. He seems to be fine otherwise. No spots on him or flukes or anything. Should I be worried about this?
