minimalist Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 Hate to break it to ya but that fish is going to starve in your system. They need mature tanks with filamentous algae to graze on. They don't eat prepared foods. Sorry, man. Link to comment
Casabubu Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 Wow! What a cool little freind! What kind of fish is that? Link to comment

melbourne Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 can anybody tell me what is happing to my zoa in the first pic its been like that for about 2 weeks it doesnt seem to be shrinking it just has that ring around it also i still have the fish i didnt want to take him back to the lfs but dont want to hurt him he seems to be doing fine and is usually out and about while im not there any suggestins on what to do with him anybody want him Can't quite tell from the pic, does it look like the polyp is covered with a white film or do you see any slug / nudibranchs around the polyps? From the pics it appears that most are not fully extended which they should be normally - zoa's usually don't like direct flow so make sure that your power filter output is not going directly on them. As for the fish, is it eating? Usually when I get a wild fish and its not eating well - I try frozen / live first and then eventually if I'm lucky I get it to eat / supplement flake. Make sure you change your water if you are feeding cyclo or any other frozen food since it will foul your water fast in such a small tank. -Mike Link to comment
chuck22689 Posted December 13, 2005 Author Share Posted December 13, 2005 update and question first a few pics then a question does anybody know what is producing this slime this pic was taken right after i did a water change but the slime is horrable and is coming from some hard protrusions that are all over the rock Link to comment
