Answer 1

live food

Answer 2

try different foods, most fish love bloodworms and brine shrimp.....

like most animals they like a variety to thier diet. it sucks to eat the same thing every day. try some brine shrimp, bloodworms or frozen veggie cubes every now and then.

Live foods in particular work well, be sure to try a few different foods, thats the best you can do.
