Default Lemonpeel

Okay at this moment i have a lemonpeel that i got 2 days ago.
That guy isn't eating!
i've tried purple algae, mysis, garlic drops and now like a bunch of random algae.

He is wild caught.... so maybe thats why he won't eat anything...
i have him in a quarantine tank so that it won't get my other fish sick.

what should i do and try?

I do not think he will eat for you at all, in my 10 yrs plus of this hobby, the first 24hrs is a good indication, if not eating by then, keep your fingers crossed... GOOD LUCK.

It may be fine, I've had some fish go2-3 days hiding and not eating and then bam! act perfectly normal and lived for years. Do have any shelter for it in the QT? Were the lights on from the beginning of QT?

it has no light over it, but there are other tanks around it that have light, so the QT is dim.

when i put live brine shrimp in there it chases after them but doesn't eat it. i dont know what to do
