Just got back fro LFS

[todd2000]

So my friend from NJ just came to visit yesterday, and we took a drive to the "LFS" if 60mi is local , and he bought me a baby Blue Tang, and a cleaner shrimp for my B-Day! Just FYI, Triangle Tropical Fish in Durham, NC is a nice store if your in the area, I've never been B4. I will try to get some pics tommorrow, but the Tang just wedged himself in the pile of LR rubble I have in the QT tank, and hasen't come out all day.

That is perfectly normal. Don't worry about it.

He came out! Heres a pic: Isn't ne cute LOL

How long do you think I should QT him for? 3 weeks?

3-4 weeks would be good, as long as he looks healthy.

Make sure you feed him a variety of foods and nori (dried seawood on a clip in the tank) to keep him healthy.

I see a lot of people use the Nori that they use for Sushi, is this just as good or better then the stuff the sell in the LFS such as this http://www.drsfostersmith.com/Product/Prod_Display.cfm?pcatid=5026&ref=3532&subref=AD&N=2004+6100 ?

Sushi nori is just as good -- just make sure it isn't the kind with any spices or other additives.

Yep, just make sure its the plain nori.

You can also soak your nori in some selcon for added nutrients!

Mine says Toasted Nori, Ingrediants = Seaweed, so I guess im good to go. How often should I feed it to him?
