Wild bicinctus

I saw it available one day, and next day they were sold out. Maybe they were available beforehand I just didn't know about it.

The male is looking a whole lot better today.... more erect fins, and swimming around the tank more.

I only wish they had better appetites....

Have you tried spirulina enriched brine? My clowns love it, as well mysis.

Frankly I'm trying everything. I leave on Monday for business for two weeks. I hope to find something they love before that.

You can always give the food a sprinkle of crack...... I hope they eat good for you, before you have to leave.

This might be obvious.. But I always use freshly hatched brine shrimp.. Seems to work better than anything else.

I don't think the tank sitter will hatch brine shrimp and feed it to his clown fish. Best of luck.
Maybe frozen mysis or some fish eggs

Yes, I've done that many times. You can also put the eggs in the tank with a floss filter and let them hatch on their own. If they eat sitter can just add some more later. Not the preferred method, but works in a pinch. Cyclop-eeze works well also many times for picky eaters.

Try Reef Caviar if you can find it. It is the only food I have never had a fish refuse, even mandarins. All of my clowns go insane for it.

They've taken to LRS fish frenzy quite well

Not as yellow as yours SDguy but these fishes are beautiful. I love their swimming pattern, the solid yellow/gold fins, and the shimmering blue hue of the two white stripes under radiums.

Got them on LA. Two week guarantee just in case.

How are yours doing?

 

[SDguy]

The male is looking 100% better today!! So happy, since I leave on business tomorrow :-/

 

[tonysi]

Awesome, good to hear!

 

[OrionN]

I am really glad that you got them to eat. They are such beautiful fish. Even if I am not into clowns other than Percula and Ocellaris, I can see the quality of those two fish. Keep us update on their progress

 

[isseym328]

Mine are doing well. Both are eating and hanging out in the Gigantea. I was a bit concerned with the smaller fish due to some type of growth coming out of its chin area, but it disappeared yesterday. Will keep an eye out on him as he also twitches a bit sometimes.

I'm glad your fish is eating! Fantastic news. Please provide more pics after your business trip.

 

[SDguy]

Both dead. My fault. Still sick as a dog and have to fly to Europe on business. Don't want to talk about it.

/rant.

I am so so so sorry

 

[isseym328]

Sorry for your loss. If you're still looking to replace them I know bluezoo has one large specimen left. You might want to ping them when you get back.
