The title pretty much says it all here.

I have had a group of black neons for about 3-4 months now. I haven't lost any to death and they are active, but they BARELY eat. It isn't that they don't go after food, but they are the pickiest fish I have ever had. They have remained the same size since I got them.

The forktails are new, but they seem to be a little picky as well.

I also have regular neons and glolights in there, and they eat anything.

I feed a mix too: Formula 1 and 2 flakes, brine shrimp flakes (and frozen) and frozen blood worms.

I guess I am wondering what others have done with picky eaters. I don't know what other food I could use that they would like. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks
 
How about Black Neons? I'm not AS worried about the Furcatas. They are just slightly picky, and I've had them less than a week. The Black Neons are not thriving, and I know it's because they aren't eating.
