CLOWN FISH-FIRST CASUALTY

[blau]

I replaced the stock pump in my nano with a microjet??? I can't remember as I'm not home right now. It is adjustable from 30 gph to 73 gph. I have it set in the middle. It's in the third camber of my nanocube.

The clownfish that's not eating is swimming along side with his buddy. Sometimes he looks a little lost, other times he charges at his friend to "catch up" with him. He likes to hide behind some of my rock at times, but when the lights are off, he swims all over the place.

i still say cyclop-eeze. mine go crazy when they see the shotglass i deliver it in. and i mean CRAZY!!! laps around the tank and everything. they can't eat much bigger food bc they are small and so are their mouths. they eat that and marine s and flake if i break it up first.

CYCLOP-EEZE

I'll try to find it today. I don't believe that I have seen it here. May have to order it.

CYCLOP-EEZE

Is the Cyclop-eez you use a liquid or in granule form? Also, how much water do you all have in the second and third chamber? I only have about an inch in the second chamber. I have increased the size of the opening that allows the water to flow over into the second chamber. I have not noticed much change.

frozen block, you just chip off what you need of the cyclopeeze, probably like a pencil eraser size piece with do you to start.

I have no luck with the cyclopeeze. My lfs gave me a small sample portion so I wouldn't have to buy a whole package. He will take food into his mouth but then he spits it out. I am at a lost for what to do next.

JDSmith,

My non-eating clownfish is now eating (We'll call him clownfish A). He now bullys the other clown (clownfish B) and is taking his food. Clownfish B will eat cyclopeeze, but clownfish A will not, so I guess it kind of works out in a weird way.

CLOWNFISH EATING HABITS

My only remaining clown fish has a ravenous appetite. He is doing great. I think that I am going to hold off adding anymore clowns for awhile. Everyone else is doing great.
