Help getting my Candy Basslet Feeding

Bongo Shrimp

P. ceratophthalma
I just got a pair of candy basslets two days ago and one is not feeding (I lost one this afternoon cause unknown). Anyhow does anyone have any idea what really gets them going? I have tried mysis and cyclops so far. Tomorrow I can get live brine. Are there any other things the can't resist?

If I read that correctly sorry to hear about the loss that's terrible. You should try PMing the users michael_cb_125 and MedRed. Michael has a single CB and MedRed has a pair.

Here is a link to MedRed's build thread in case there is any info in there that is useful to you:

Good luck!
 
Mine started eating Roggers Reef Food immediately after going into dt.
So far its been almost a year and NO issues with eating!!!
Good Luck
 
Thanks guys! I have been talking to Michael and will go check out MedRed's build. Luckily however, late last night I decided to throw some more mysis in there and I saw two pieces go in his mouth and not come out! So I think he started eating! Now I still am seeing about getting him another friend but that's another story.

I had the worst day yesterday cause I lost one and then the best day after seeing him eat!
