How can they not fall in love with at least bloodworms?!?! How about not feeding them for two days, and then offer the new food again? A hungry fish is more willing to fill his stomach up with whatever at this point...

Apart from not eating, do they act normally? Do they swim nice n slow??

Thats incredibly odd. Mine would probably eat the paint off the walls if I let em. They should definitely love some peas. Yeah try fasting them for a few days. What recipe for gel food did you use?

Hmmm...that is very odd....I have never met a goldfish that didn't eat everything that was in front of his mouth,including things he shouldn't of ate!!!!

Hi, I have a few questions--how big are your fish? How many fish? How many times a day do you try to feed them?
I suggest feeding only once a day and just give a little bit--they should eat whatever you put in. Or you could not feed them for one day and they should be quite hungry for whatever you feed them.
