What's up Amigos and Amiga's .. hope everyone's weekend is going well and/or went well. So I finished the process of getting my 125 all set up good to go cycled and everything. All is well with the tank and transferred some livestock over from my 90 that I took apart. (Atlantic Blue tang, Hippo, 2 skunks and chromis) I just added 1 male and 3 female Lyretail's and they are active and swimming around now for the past 2 days (although the male hides out a little bit still) ... I know these guys are pretty hardy and adapt well but they seem to be not to happy with any of the goodies I am throwing at them. I have tried some frozen food (has some Mysis in there) regular dried Mysis shrimp ( I put the mysis by the powerheads to blow them into the tank to make it look more natural) flakes and some dried zoo plankton too.. kinds seeing which ones they will go for and how they are responding to each. Right now seems that they are not touching much of anything so I am just being pro active and seeing if anyone has any suggestions and or have gone down this road before. Is this just because they are new to the tank? Still getting acclimated and comfortable? Any tips are welcomed and I look forward to hearing back !! Thanks !!
 
my anthias were like this too when i first got them. i got oyster feast, garlic, and they started eating. now they eat everything
