The clown will probably start eating in a day or so, that yellow clown gobi may never eat flakes and mysis. I have quite a few of them and most do not eat mysis and they live on new hatched brine shrimp and live blackworms. The larger clown gobies may eat mysis but I doubt they will eat anough of them to live a long time.

When I get a new fish, I don't even try to feed them until they've been in for 24 hours, they need time to de-stress.
BUT, you've got 2 clowns, a goby, a shrimp and 50 snails in a 10 gallon! :eek1: :eek1: :eek1: :eek1: :eek1: :eek1:
You are already over stocked, watch your ammonia very closely, it may take some time for your tank to adjust to that bioload in such a small system.

OK, don't know why I was thinking two clowns. But you are still really standing on the edge there, most clowns require a 20 gallon or larger aquarium. Just be sure you keep a close eye on your ammonia for the first couple weeks. I would check daily for the first week at least. Also, 50 snails is A LOT for a 10 gallon, I don't have that many in my 55G, you may lose some to starvation, so don't be surprised.

Most of the snails have lived actually Since i've had it up and running). The clown I got is very small. I know it will grow because it isn't fully mature yet but at the LFS they have 2 in a 1 gallon nano cube. . . I thought it would be OK. I really wish I could remember what kind of clown they called it.
I will check my ammonia at least once a day.
thanks for the help
