Red Tailed Black Shark Cant/wont Eat

[matchstickman47]

i dont know whats wronge wiv it it just dosent eat when i put flakes at the top

its not interested and the angels and gouramis eat all of it before anything else

ive tried longer lasting frozen food and sinking wafers and pellets, failed , he is new only had him for 4 days, hes about 2 inches long tops, soo cool but frustrating
am i worring to much?
no signs of illness wass introduce at the sam time as two greedy opalines,

i didnt quarantine, no space.
he/she is in a 110 litre tank,

any feeding techniques?
any other info needed to know about this fish,
the only fish i havent reaserched cause it was an impulse buy only cost me £2.50
its seems quite happy by itself so im not puting any more in apparently they fight?
i could add him into a 60 litre
fish in there are abit less competitive

he is new so i would persiver, ive just managed to get my newest snakehead to eat after about 3-4week's....some fish take longer than other's......You could try him in the smaller tank for a while if you like, but i feel it should be fine in a while....have you tried small bottom feeding pellet's?

my redtailed black shark doesn't really go after the flakes i put it. He prefers to chase everyone else who is trying to eat them haha. He is a shy fish except when he's being territorial but I've had him for about 6 months now. Make sure you sink some flakes and he'll find them. I drop sinking pellets and algea wafers down for my cories and also for munching for the bala sharks. They also like to have places to hide. Mine has several places under logs where he can rest. I also see him scavange the glass for algea and see little tracks where he has been all over the tank.
