I have some evansi anthias that appear healthy and swimming actively in my tank. I have had one for over a month now and recently added 2 more. The problem is I have not seen them eat once ever. I have fed pellets, frozen brine, frozen mysis, mixed with selcon and garlic but they just watch the food floating around them and won't touch it. I also tried live blood worms a week ago and still nothing. While they appear perfect right now shoaling and swimming around my tank, I'm worried this picturesque scene won't last unless they start eating. Please help.

They are supposedly picky eaters. Maybe this will help (#2 onwards).
