How to get them to eat?They seem to not eat and I'm pretty worried they will starve to death. I tried feeding them pellets and frozen mysis shrimps but they doesn't seem to be interested. Is there any other alternative?Ive gotten them for almost 3 days already

Have you tried live brine shrimps?

Live brine shrimps may not have much nutritional value, but at least they get to eat something.

If that works, consider to fortify the brine shrimps by adding a product called "Selcon" (contains Omega 3 fatty acids & vitamins) to the brine shrimp about 15min before feeding it to the fishes. The brine shrimps will consume the selcon which in turn be eaten by the fishes. This is what I do for my newly added picky eaters. Works every time to ensure survival before they slowly transition to mysis & pellets.
