Just wanted to come on here and share my experience buying a quarantined CBB from TSM Aquatics. After (unsuccessfully) trying my luck with 3 different CBB's from my LFS in the past year, I finally decided to bite the bullet and purchase a quarantined specimen from TSM Aquatics. Josh was very nice and responsive to all of my doubts and concerns (I pre-ordered in December 2023 and received the fish last Tuesday). I was super nervous as this was my first time ever buying a fish online. After temp acclimating him for 45 minutes, I dropped him into the tank with the lights off. He was acting a little funny the first two days (I'm assuming from all the stress of being shipped) but after the second day he was chowing down on everything I threw in the tank! Frozen bloodworms and spirulina mysis from Hikari, live blackworms, PE mysis and thinly sliced littleneck clams. Contrary to what some people say, he is definitely hunting down the pods on my rocks and back glass. My tank was running fallow for the last three months and the pod population increased like C R A Z Y! I am beyond happy with my purchase and with my CB as the other 3 I tried all died within a week from starvation. Nothing can beat the joy I get seeing this little guy eat
I tried getting a video of him during lunch time . He gets thawed bloodworms for breakfast, thawed mysis for lunch, and sliced clam for dinner.
