Another fish Question??

[LB]

I recieved my first order last tues. Everything looked great and are excellent specimens. I'm very happy so far however I haven't been able to get the bluthroat trigger to eat.He was the last I expected to be finicky but I've tried mysis,brine,squid,all soaked in garlic and while he looks interested he has not eaten. Any suggestions??? I also got a solarensis and a yellow watchman goby. The solerensis was eating at the fist feeding and never even hid,the goby has'nt been seen in 2 days so I can't tell,but I'll keep a close eye for him.

LB,

Thank you for your post. We would recommend feeding larger meaty foods, such as squid, krill, clams, small fish and hard shelled shrimp to help wear down their ever growing teeth. We would also recommend live or fresh foods if possible, as these will be closer to what it finds in the wild, and thus more likely to be consumed. Please keep us posted in case the Trigger does not start eating or in case its health declines.
