If you can catch it, I'd give the force feeding a try. Use a pipette and mix up a mash of some flake food and some garlic etc and make it wet with a fair amount of water. Put the pipette into it's mouth and wait till the gills close, squirt in a tiny bit of food and then put it back into the water. Don't feed it to much to start with you don't want to shock it's system. Any chance it has an internal parasite? You may want to add some Praziquantel to the wet mix of food for it.

Good luck,

Doug
