I know you're considering all the wrasses but I added a velvet damsel? to my 15g cube that has/had a horrible flatworm infestation and they are now all gone. Can't find a single one. And it's super pretty and very well behaved so far. Only had him a couple months though.

I have the red coris and yellow, planning to add some more they are wonderful fish.

Velvet? Why'd you go with a Velvet just out of curiosity?

Pretty. Gets bigger than average damsel. Planning on adding him to my Eel tank once he's a bit bigger.

Cool! Glad he worked out. They're not typically known for eating pests as far as I'm aware. Springeri and I think Talbot's maybe?

I have a springerii. Since day 1. Love that little guy.

I'm feeling a little worried about my foxface buddy this morning. Last night it was acting a little off or more scared than usual but still ate food that floated by it. This morning it wont come out of it's hiding spots and wouldnt even eat any food that floated by it. I put some nori on a clip (which it always runs over to with gusto) set up a camera and went to work. I haven't seen it come out of it's caves since, not even for the Nori.

It still hasnt come out at all yet. . Maybe it is constipated? I think thats a thing for fish.... It has been going to town on tons of pellets since I'm running low on frozen. If it is constipated, would it clear itself out?

It is a thing and it can clear up on its own, but sometimes doesn't. Does he appear bloated?

Hoping for the best!

i read somewhere that someone said to peel a pea and feed it to them when constipated. dont ask me how to peel a pea.

I think you blanch them and then the shell comes off easier.

I read that too but if I cant get him to eat, its kinda moo.

well yeah i guess that matters.

Sometimes they'll eat other things. Couldn't hurt to try?

^this

 

[rmorris_14]

I'll give it a whirl if I see it come out of hiding.

Or, what I did for my friend when she was raising ducks, (if they are frozen) you can just microwave them for a bit and just squeeze them out of the the shell
