Clown not eating- Help!

[Dawn II]

Farm raised- got yesterday. Not interested in flake or mysisi- ate a little brine/spirulina. Am I ok??

What other fish are with him? Mine started eating the second day. All mine really eats is flake. I would say you are still ok for now. If he hasn't started eating in a few more days I would say something is definitely not right.

Alone- he's in Quarantine.

weird. Clowns typically eat anything all the time. I guess wait another day or so and see how it goes.

Cycloopeeze!! They love it!!

 

[Dawn II]

Yeah, I have that too- just seems to nibble

I inherieted three from a buddy, he had them for years (tank raised false percs). They had even bred. They hid for a while, but didn't eat for about a week. They started to pick at cycloopeeze, and now eat mysis, brine, formula 1 flakes. Even got them host a new anemone.

Give it time, see how it goes. Hope this helps.
