Picked these guys up a couple weeks ago in GB.
Seem healthy, active, etc. The cleaner shrimp tends to steal food from anywhere. Including corals. Little bugger. I was hoping he would do more scavenging / cleaning, but he just swims up and annoys my clown during feeding time. Once he snags a pellet he wanders off to eat though, so not a big deal. I see him cleaning other things too.
My concern is with the Blenny. I never see the guy eat. I tried sinking wafers on a recommendation. It landed near him and he never glanced at it twice. (The the stupid cleaner shrimp came and had a snack.)
He seems like he is hungry around feeding time, but he has ignored flake, pellet, brine shrimp, rods food, and wafers. Most advice I've received is to try random things as they are all a bit different. Doesn't seem like he is starving though, so maybe he eats enough of the rods food?
What are you folks feeding with success? I don't want to overfeed while trying out foods to interest the little guy. Not that my clown fish lets much of anything go to waste.
