When you post that fish dont eat with no test results. People have a hard time giving advice.

It's tough to take a guess on what's going on unless you give some more details.

What is your setup like?

What is your maintenence schedule?

What are your water params?

Where did you get the fish? Did you quarantine them first? Did they all come from the same place?

Is there anything else about their appearance or behavior that doesn't seem right? Dark color? White Feces? Hiding?
