New tank first fish

[macara.brooks]

Hello I'm new here and I just started my 135 gallon fish tank and I have a few questions.

I just got two clownfish fish today and I don't know if they are ok or not. They are just babies.

They are exploring the whole tank top to bottom.

But they keep surfacing

They always swim together

But they haven't eaten

The food I was given is bug bites tropical fish formula (insect larvae and salmon fish

The water temp is 75f

Salinity 1.022

if anyone has any information or advice and answers it would be greatly appreciated

Don’t worry new fish never eat the first day.

But get better foods, buy some frozen foods like mysis and reef frenzy. Or marine pellets like PE mysis pellets. But reef frenzy is the best your fish will love it.

Whoever you bought that food from, sold you freshwater fish food. Tropical does not refer to ocean, marine, reef, or saltwater.

Yeah, like people said above, Definitely get better food, My clownfish go crazy for frozen brine shrimp!

I love to see my new fish eat IMMEDIATELY!

Thank you I did end up calling them and they said they eat that brand in the morning and shrimp at night. I still think I’ll swap to something better

This is a good fish food, my clowns love it.

Variety is the best for diet. I feed frozen mysis, prime reef, and a couple different types of pellets.
