Hes just stubborn because I've been treating for flukes, IP, and ick. His poops are not see through but thini only have one solo, but is it possible it's carrying babies? i've heard the males carry the young for quite awhile and can't eat while they carry them, or it could just not be eating and there could be some kind of disease issue
When bangaiis ate breeding, the male will carry the babies anywhere between 21 days to a whole month. The whole time, the male wont eat. It's pretty apparent when they have babies because their jaws extend like ztan Smith from American dad.

He MIGHT be eating the left overs. Bc theirs 2 other fish in their and see the left overs disappear at night.heh, well figured it was worth a thought
hopefully it's just being difficult in QT.
i bought some marine cuisine and ima try it tonight, i asked the pet store and he said that they eat mysis shrimp yet mine dosen't -_-I would recommend asking the store where you got it what they were feeding it. and if they had success with that food. I have found some chain pet stores only use foods with garlic and have seen some fish get to the point of only eating foods with garlic..
I have used Marine Cuisine in most of my tanks.. my Banggai loves it.. He also does the small pellets of slow sinking food. I have noticed he will not eat while my clowns are actively eating.. Sometimes doing two feeding spots one for the more active eaters and one for the more shy eaters works to help them get food too.. I have noticed as well my Banggai will not eat from the ground or surface.. only while it is free floating..
Most pet shops feed pellet or flake food. The other thing may be if you got it right after they did.. it may have not eaten there either.. may have to see what the distributor was feeding.. sometimes when they are raised on one food they have issue taking on another for a while.. a mixed diet is always best for them anyway so can mix in what they were feeding with some of the fresher frozen stuff.. most distributors and pet stores feed pellet and flake because it is cheaper and only feed frozen on species where they have to..i bought some marine cuisine and ima try it tonight, i asked the pet store and he said that they eat mysis shrimp yet mine dosen't -_-
I have never tried that stuff... I may have to look for it to try it.. a little reading up on it makes it sound like wonderful stuff.. are you doing the pellet or frozen?Feed LRS I haven’t seen a fish not eat it .

I usually feed 75% frozen with a small bit of pellets here and there.. I know feeding variety was always best for keeping my tanks healthy in the past.. Are you doing the reef blend or which ones? do you buy direct and have it shipped or do you have a local source?Frozen always get the frozen.
