Hello all,
Two weeks ago I purchased a Male Lyretail Anthias (medium size). I haven't been able to get him to eat anything. I feel all hope may be lost because today I tried live blackworms and saw him spit them out. I tried Capelin Fish Roe (fish eggs), I tried LRS Reef Frenzy, I tried Hikari Angelfish blend, I tried Mysis, Oyster meat, and frozen cyclopods. The only things he has put in his mouth are Fish Roe, Oyster Meat, and Reef Frenzy, but he spits everything out. He hasn't bothered to try anything else.
He is an active fish, he looks thinner now after I brought him home, I fear it won't be too long before he dies of starvation
Is there anything else I can try that may work?
