Hey just got a beautiful little Clowknife and hes not eating. So far I have offered marketshrimp, pellets (sinking), ghost shrimp, blood worms and guppies. He is looking pretty thin and is kinda acting lethargic. Any ideas? I gave him all these foods with the lights on and when off to see if he was just nervous. He is not hiding either, the knife swims around the tank but in a lazy way.

you see a lot like that at lfs all over... most of them recover, so don't be worried, just buy some blood worms and see himm slowly recovering... you can add some epson salt and rise the temp a bit, it could have parasites, so keep the water clean and it willl recover

show us a pic and you can get better help.

good luck
