Hi everyone,

I have 2 Cardinals that stopped eating the last few days. They were eating great for 2 months until now.

They normally ate live mysis shrimp up to this point with vitachem and garlic guard.

I have tried flakes, omega one pellets, dried mysis shrimp, and live brine shrimp.

They swim up to the food interested, sometimes nibble on a small piece and spit the big pieces out usually.

I'm not sure if this is related to it but every once and a while I noticed at least one of them open its mouth big a few times in a row expanding there jaw a bit.

I haven't had any luck figuring out which is male or female. I thought they could be brooding but why would both not eat instead of just the male. I couldn't see any eggs in there mouths but it is difficult to see.

Any suggestions are appreciated.
