Copper band refusing to eat!!!

[hdsoftail1065]

I wish I could give a good update but sadly he didnt make through the night . I might try another one down the road but it will probly be after all of my other fish get out of QT. Thank you all for your help.

Sorry to hear about your fish. :(

mine didn't want to eat either (2 days).

Tried half shells and mussels. Also frozen black worms to no avail.

then while at LFS, i grabbed a portion of live blood worms and dropped them in a cone feeder. he went bonkers! Not a lot of nutrient in those so i later picked up some cubes of frozen brine in garlic. Bonkers again!

Now he eats from the cone exclusively and i supplement with a frozen angel buttlerfly blend from SF bay and he loves that too. I would suggest that if you decide to try another later on, then if they dont go for the half shells or mussels, try some live blood worms. Mine still doesnt like half shells or mussels. Weird but I'm sure if they were live he would go after them ;)
