Feeding Yellow Watchman.

[Unclejessie1967]

What is the best food/tecnique for feeding this guy. He is the first thing into a brand new cycled 20L. I tried Mysis and Brine and he didn't really seem to go for them. I dropped a flake of tropical fish food that I had laying around and he seemed more eager to feedbut just passed it through his gills. I want to be carefull not to puttoo much waste into the tank. Any Ideas?Is he maybe gorging himself on copopods and I don't see it. I just want to give him the best home possible.

Thanks
Eric

Maybe try some cyclop -eeze if cut into very small pinhead size may be a good choice .It comes in a forzen freezer bar . Hope this helps some

Yellow Watchman Goby

My YW Goby has a voracious appetite and is eager to eat shrimp pellets & pieces of freeze dried shrimp (he grabs a piece from the stick when I try to feed the serpent star).

How big is your watchman? The only reason I can think of for him not feeding is inappropriate sized food. I have had a couple and they all ate like they were always starving. Skip

Well I think he just needed to adjust to his new home. Still quite skiddish but comesoutofhis hole to eat mysis or brine shrimp wich I do shop up a lil smaller now. Thanks for all the help guys.
