There's probably plenty of posts about this, but I would start by checking the water quality. If you don't have a test-kit, see if your local shop will do a test of the water for you.
You want to know at the very least:
Nitrate level
Nitrite level
Ammonia level
pH level
Also useful to us here would be the size of the pond that you're keeping it, water temperature and how big the fish is at the moment.
You could probably find something useful by just searching in the forum search for "Red tail not eating", and choose the "Search for all words" option. It should give you a good few threads, I would think.
