I have no suggestions. i had a green one once that did not eat anything and starved to death. Hopefully you find some solution. are you using garlic?
 
Garlic is used as an additive for fish that aren't eating. You would add the garlic to the food (flake, frozen, etc) and it may encourage the fish to eat. I don't exactly know why but it has been said to help with a fish that is sick or just not eating.

Some people buy the garlic additive at the fish store and others just mix regular garlic with the food. One commercially available additive is made by Kent Marine it is called "Garlic Xtreme".
 
I've seen it as a liquid that you soak the food in. The times I've used it when I had a fish that wasn't eating, that is what I did.
