so who got stuff from dom today?

haha thanks aznt. i guess i'll just keep trying different foods over the next few days. kinda weird to have a tang that ignores veggies

I trick them and put flakes in thawed mysis. You should try arctipods. Those usually work well for finicky fish.

hmm ill swing by MA this weekend and pick up some articpods too

 

[krak256]

ok, the PBT started nibbling at some ulva but still shows no interest in pellets, flakes, or mysis. any tips aznt or dom?

i havent really seen the leopard wrasse eat either... im going to try rods tom and see if its receptive.

 

[aznt1217]

Did you try the arctipods?

Also how are the fish reacting when you walk by?

 

[krak256]

not yet, wasnt able to stop by MA this weekend. they're not too bad, the PBT is still a bit scared but comes out right after. the leopard wrasse just stays in nook and doesn't swim away even if i come up to the tank

You have to be relentless, patient and careful. These are difficult fish to work with. You have to keep offering a variety of foods while also not disturbing them too much. I mailed out your algae today so hopefully you'll get it soon.

damn... the leopard wrasse kicked the bucket last night.

on a positive note, the powder brown was eating nori, but had a bit of ich... seemed a lil pale as well.
