I apologize if anyone has already saw my post on this..
I'm just trying to become comfortable in knowing if my first pair of saltwater fish, ever..if doing just fine.
I got these guys back in November 24th 2013. I put them right in my D.T. because they looked healthy, ate at the LFS, and were even in a Q.T. when I got them. (as it looked like one.) not sure if it was a Q.T.
They had them for a month before I actually got them, their fish look great for the most part, when I say 'the most part' I mean, they have quarantines all set up.
so after putting the pair in my D.T....11/29/2013 I put them in a Q.T. I set up in my apartment only because they were pooping white. nothing other than that.
after putting them in there, I have done research since then...all I could find was...it is a internal illness of some sort (bacterial, worm, parasite..)
12/27/2013 it is now, they haven't gotten worse, still swimming actively around the tank, eat when I feed them ever other day. Oh, I do feed them the frozen mysis shrimp...a lot of people told me that could be what is causing it. And I am doing a big order tomorrow for a late gift to myself...and the love of this hobby. 1 item of the order is going to be marine S small pellet food. just to change the diet up and feed mysis 1-2 times a week instead of every other day. and see if the white poop goes away.
I will have a video link, I'd like to have them back in my Display :/ IMHO I don't think they are sick. before I bought them, they were pooping normal, until I started to feed the mysis..that's when it happened. maybe it is the mysis after all. let's hope! because this big order I'm getting, has the aquatic life dual T5HO lamps for my 20 gallon so I can make this a thriving nano
and my clown fish would love it!
sorry for the long rambling post.
but Thank you very much in advance for taking the time to read what I had to say!
