My fish not eating

I have 12 gallon nano tank just finished cycling. I have one clown fish and 2 demsels and one bta. The tank was set up about 3 weeks ago. Everything was fine until 3 days ago, 2 demsels are not eating. They used to eat a lot. Now they tried to eat aggressively but then spit the food out. I feed them Spectra Max flake food. Has anybody experienced like this or got any idea. Please help, I don't want my fish die starving. Thank you.

Maybe they do not like eating flake food. Try giving them frozen food such as brine shrimp, mysis, or formula one.

whenever anything in any tank starts going the way you don't want it, always check the water with every test kit you have...

Water parameters

What are your water parameters? Try to feed New Life Spectrum pellets. They are suppose to be the best dried food! The Thera A formula even has garlic.
