What do anthias eat?

Hello anthias lovers.
I bought a couple female purple queen anthias 4-5 days ago.
I've tried feeding them frozen formula 1, formula 2 flakes, and mysid shrimp and so far, NOTHING. the food passes right by their mouths and they dont even budge.
I'm worried for them.
Please help me... what do these fish love to eat the most???

Try some frozen cyclopeeze on them. I have lyretails and they eat anything I put in the tank.
