Added a CBB today......

[chimmike]

Got him at the LFS where I watched him lightly pick at mysis.

So I got him home, acclimated him, and he wouldn't touch my mysis. Seems to be picking pods or something off the back wall of my tank.

We'll see how he does tomorrow. He's small, so hopefully he picks it up quickly!

Live black worms = crack cocaine for CBB

Which kind of mysis?

 

[chimmike]

hikori mysis. I'll see if I can find live blackworms around here.

For my butterfly fish, some prefer PE mysis, so if you have that, give it a shot. Another thing my butterfly fish like is fish roe (capelin). But all love blackworms. Many LFS carry them.

sounds like I'll be picking those up. I'm gonna try to ween him onto mysis as soon as I can. Should've picked up rods food today, durnit.
