Got this beautiful Naso tang 5 days ago but he won't eat...
He swims around a bit but still a bit shy of humans which is understandable. LFS gave me proof of quarantine prior to shipping and since my QT is too small for him and not properly cycled I decided to put him in DT right away.
Foods tried:
- Green Nori (tied to rock, free floating and clip)
- Live Caulepra from refrugium
- Shrimp
- Masstick
- Pallets
- Rucolla
He did nip at the nori but spit it out.
At LFS was very stressed as he had just arrived but in my tank he calmed down immediately and white stress spots disappeared within a couple of hours.
He's still quite fat so can go a few more days without eating + I saw him pick at the sand a couple of times probably grabbing some pods but this diet is not viable long term...
Any suggestions?
