Within the last 2 weeks I obtained a healthy about 4" long hippo tang from a fellow hobbiest. I put the fish is a quarentine tank that I had set up acouple of months ago with a few piece of live rock. The first few days it retreated to the underside of the rock and didn't come out. Then after about 4 day it came out and ate some mysis shrimps, and flake. Eating for a few days then it stopped eating again and went to the underside of the rocks.
I have tried mysis, flake and Nori at diferent times with no luck.
I change about 2 gallons of the water on a daily basis using water from my reef tank and use a sponge filter in a hang on back filter for filtration. Any suggestions on how to get this guy (or girl) to eat. I had planned to keep him in this 30 Gal tank for 30 days and then put him in my main reef tank if all went ok.
