vokuro Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 good evening everyone. i recently purchased a clown from my lfs. I didnt inquire as to weather it was captive bred or wild. its approaching 2 weeks now and i have yet to see him sample anything i have offered. ive tried formula 1 and some marine flakes. what can i do to coax him into feeding? thanks Link to comment
jenniebutterfly Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 try brine or mysis, mine loves it. Link to comment
drg0nzo1 Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 he may be snacking on pods, does he look thin in the belly at all? What kind of food are you using btw? Link to comment
vokuro Posted February 8, 2005 Author Share Posted February 8, 2005 im feeding him a frozen mixture called feeder feast daily diet, and some cheap flakes i bought at petco. i have noticed a seeming decline in his health/appearence lately. i will give the mysis a try, thank you. anyone else?

treylane Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Cyclopeeze. He should go for it pretty much right away, and probably won't eat anything else for a few days, but should catch on to other foods before long. You'll have to do a wc every couple days until he starts eating normal foods, since the cyclopeeze will mess up your water quality if you feed a lot of it. Link to comment
