Hello, right now I have a firefish, 3 stripe damsel, yellow tail blue damsel, saphire blue damsel, a green chromis, and a six line wrasse. All are doing great but the wrasse.
I got my wrasse yesterday, and acclimated him using the drip method, when I put him in he went to the front corner and would stay put, he did not look ill, his fins were moving fast and he seemed interested in me. He would not move more than 2" from his spot. He went from the corner to a cave all night, then this morning went deeper in my rocks and has stayed in there and it is not eating. I have read that these fish can refuse food and not come out for a few days. I am sort of unsure of how to get him to eat, I have some brine shrimp growing. Would white/ghost shrimp work, the saltwater kind?
My fish plans are to eventually add a pair of Ocellaris clowns, then a Blue tang. And lastly I was thinking about adding a lemonpeel or a coral beauty.
Help is appreciated, thanks.
