superdavesds Posted June 10, 2009 Share Posted June 10, 2009 Really you think its parasites, hmm. I will try and post to find out. I will say this morning when I got Home he ate real well and looked pretty normal. A while later skinny again. I think he may be anemic! He goes behind the rock and throws up after lunch.

MadWorld Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 (edited) I bought 2 green clown gobies 3 days ago, and for the first 3 days they are not eating. I tried frozen, dried, live brine with and without garlic, same with flakes, and pellets, and they didn't take them. They are in a divider at the moment. Will they start to eat in a week or so or am i screwed? Edited June 17, 2009 by MadWorld Quote Link to comment

MadWorld Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 My green clown goby took 5 days, almost a week, before he started eating. And he is healthy as horse. Alright, they are both eating now lol. They are taking in everything, flakes, pellets, etc. But one thing, are they "immune" to anemones? I have some aiptasia around the tank, and i dont want them to get killed from them.

Clavius85 Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 (edited) I'm a member of the clown goby club now! I got this guy yesterday. So far he seems to be doing well. I haven't gotten him to eat anything yet but I'm still working on that. I'll put up some better pictures later. Edited June 21, 2009 by Clavius85 Quote Link to comment
MadWorld Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 yes So, can they "host" anemones? Quote Link to comment

hooligan_78 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 Mine is in my 10, it's my favorite fish in there. I use a little cup of tank water to thaw the food in and when I scoop out the water, the little booger jumps in! It knows what the lunch wagon is! Quote Link to comment

lakshwadeep Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 In the wild, they live in SPS colonies and eat the polyps. Quote Link to comment
Megoony Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Ugh. I got mine two weeks ago and can't even get him to nibble on anything. I've tried flake, frozen brine, frozen brine in garlic, live brine, frozen mysis . . . and nothing. He's a good color, and pretty active, just really skinny. I've been trying to feed him three or four times a day and still no luck i would try cyclopeez but the LFS doesn't have it, and if I order it online he'll still probably have starved to death by the time it comes. BAH. my fish is anorexic Quote Link to comment
Bella's Reef Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Here is my little fella, he likes to hang out on this Ricordea and waits for food on my frag rack in my 29g Biocube, definately a character. Quote Link to comment
Nanobuds Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 i moved my lil guy into the pico today!! Quote Link to comment
Carriegiesler Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 I just got a YCG yesterday and within min. of putting into my 29gal nano the P.clown and the 6-line started harrassing him. Poor little guy cant even swim into open water without the other two going after him. Right now I am trying to catch him....which is not proving to be the easiest thing without tearing up my rockscape. I am thinking I am going to have to return him to the store as he will be bullyed to death or starve becase he cant feed properly. Any thoughts on how to make everyone get along or it is best for YCG to go back Quote Link to comment
Nanobuds Posted August 7, 2009 Author Share Posted August 7, 2009 i say take him back srry Quote Link to comment
