I picked up a decent sized clown trigger about a week ago. It was eating krill in the cubical it was being held in at the store but since I got it, it doesn't seem to like it much anymore. It loves clams on the half shell though and will munch on raw table shrimp too. It recently started eating pellets but pellet size is too small for it to maintain weight long term. I bought some raw sea food from a local market today to see if he will take anything else but its being really picky. I tried squid, octopus, crab meat, and clams that aren't on a half shell.....nothing.

What do your ct eat and how did you get it to eat something it wasn't before?
 
WOW, you've just about tried everything. Once your CT has settled in, Im going to bet that he will eat a bit more of what your offereing. He's still in the acclimation period.
