I got a couple of new fish about a week ago, one is eating fine but the other one, Sunny, hasn't eaten since we got him. I'm really worried about him, he sucks the gravel like he is looking for food and seems healthy enough but he never eats what I give them. Also I put some Disease Safe in as it says you can use it for loss of appetite. Do you have any ideas on what I could try to feed him?

Try feeding blocks of food mthat you stick on the side of the tank/freeze dried tubifex worms. He'll steadily nibble at them.

Well I think your Fish Sunny is use to of having sinking food and you probably are feeding them floating type, he will get use to of it if he looks healthy and is active, sit back and relax. and yes Congrats for new Fish
