Good thought; didn't occur to me. :)
So far I've only fed them frozen, but previous owner said they ate pellets for them. I just haven't had a chance to try them yet. I might need to get some smaller ones, the one for sure is pretty small yet, I don't know that my pellets are small enough for her.
I will see if I can dig up a working autofeeder and try a few pellets during the day if I can verify they actually eat them.
I haven't tried masstick with these, but I have some made up. I had thought of that as well, but hadn't tried it yet. I will put a bit in there and see what happens. I wish I could tell for sure what they ate so I knew these options would work. Though, from what I've seen and was told they seem to take to most things pretty readily.
I am not the disease expert around here, but a thread in the fish disease forum is certainly warranted for that one.Here he is this afternoon. The body swelling in the region of the affected fin is new. My uneducated prognosis really isn't looking good.
I agree for sure.....is he eatting still? Injuries can sometimes heal on their own, but a antibiotic might be warranted. You want to watch for a bacterial infection. Post in the disease forum for sure. Beautiful specimen though! I hope he pulls through for you!
Yeah. I bet its the Purple. I had a White Tail last year and he randomly chased my wrasses so no more tangs for me. My Lineatus is now king but I think my little female Bathyphilus is getting a little pushy too.
I vote that latter but that’s just me.
True statement. We seem to have a few wrasse lovers in our neck of the woods.
He looks a little bloated?Here he is, I don’t see the tang bothering him, he gets up to eat and isn’t breathing heavy. My tang must be a terror when I’m
Not around. (The white spots are sand not ich)
He does look that way in the picture but he is at an angle with his belly closer, giving that illusion. Really not looking forward to catching the tang .
