Try canned tuna - because it's so smelly it usually entices them to eat. You can also soak the pellets into the tuna water, let them dry, and then try feeding them.

What are your temperatures (water and basking dock)?

Do they have a submersible water heater?

What is the water temp and basking area temp?

Are their eyes swollen at all?
