Thanks James - hopefully it pulls through. I’ll give progress update.It’s bleached . Could take months to nurse it back to good health
Keep everything stable and do weekly feedings
I agree.It’s bleached . Could take months to nurse it back to good health

Cheers AlanI agree.
When I nursed mine to health, I did twice a week feedings of very small amounts. You will really have to coax them to eat at first. I would turn off all flow for an hour at least and place a tiny amount of meaty food like shrimp or clam near the mouth and guard it from your fish stealing it it.
It took three weeks of this until the color began to return. As color returns, the portion size can increase and you can go to once per week feedings.
My Malu still likes once a week feedings
Once it doesn’t die I’m happy enough. Definitely wondering how long it will take to achieve its true colour though.I had one in the past and it took forever to gain color. It was sold to me as a white Seabae so I didn’t know it would even gain color
It’s not moving, not deflating and has good feeding response so think time is on my side.Patients... still looking good. I currently have a Mag that’s bleached that’s taking its time coloring up too. As long as it’s not moving a lot, gapping mouth and/or inflating and deflating it should be good.
Very interesting read. I do have BTAs in my tank but will give it a bit longer before trying the transplant route
