Canary Blenny not eating

[stupac21]

My Canary blenny won't eat.
It recently cut its mouth and stopped eating for a little while, then healed and started eating again.
Now it isn't eating and has a pinched stomach. Its looking thin, but swimming fine and still active. I have heard that soaking food in garlic can help. Has anyone tried this? what kind of garlic? Cloves or powder?

Here are my levels:
Nitrate - 20
Nitrite - 0
Amonia - .25
PH - 8.4
KH - 14dkh
Calcium - 520

Any suggestions?

Skip the garlic. Try cyclopeeze and frozen HUFA enriched mysis.
Canary Blennies are difficult to keep alive for long, but you might be able to if you get it eating.

ok, thanks for the tip, I'll stop by the store tomorrow.

I've had him for about 4 months and he's never eaten anything but spirulina, he won't touch brine.
I had no idea they were difficult to keep. he was at the store for at least 3 months.
