I've had these fish about 12 years. I've never had a problem until late last year when they weren't eating surface food. I tried sinking pellets which helped. Just started feeding again with the same results. Will continue to try pellets. They have plenty of places to hide.A little more about your issue - have they ever come to the surface for food? How long have these fish been in your pond? Any recent events that may have spooked them? Any new fish? What's your water temperature?
I couldn't agree more, Dave. Uneaten Flake food will quickly adversely affect water quality.Try to stick to the pelleted food over that of flake food, you may well find they take the food much better ,
