jneuringer Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 I wonder why two of them died? I have 7 of them. 6 which always stay together and one loner, who is always by himself. I wonder if he's weak or abused by the others.. Anyway, I feed them Hikari gardens "S" mini pellets (they are about he size of large sand) and they eat very voraciously. I feed them one pinch (for all 7 fish) per day, and that seems to keep them going. Good luck Link to comment
omens-nano07 Posted October 16, 2004 Author Share Posted October 16, 2004 Crap now that is 3 died!I dont get it Link to comment
Duke13 Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 I feed my Chromis mysid shrimp and blood worms, with an occasional flake food every now and then. They tear the food up. omens-nano07, IMO I think there's something wrong with your fish/tank, I don't think your fish are starving to death. What's your water stats? How big is your tank? Are there any other fish with the Chromis? How long has your tank been running? Link to comment
Duke13 Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 One more thing, where did you buy your Chromis from? If your answer is Petco, then you have your answer on why your fish have died. Link to comment

RegalFlush17 Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 I have always fed them formula 1 frozen food. That is a strange occurance maybe because of stress. What else do you have in your tank? Link to comment
