    Clownfish not eating recently

    Hello, I have 2 clownfish. They have been together for about 5 months now. Over the last 4 days, both clowns haven't really eaten, which seems to stem from the female not wanting to eat and the male follows suit. Here's the back story. I have a 55 gallon mixed reef tank. It got ich, so I went...

    EMERGENCY Multibar Angelfish dying, lying on side

    My multi bar angel has been less active, mostly standing under rocks for about a week, stopped eating four days ago and as of today laying on its side with an arched back. It’s about 3” with noticeable male cheek spines and no residual eye spot so I believe a full adult. I’ve had it for 3 full...

    Baby Shark Refusing to eat

    Hey! I have a banded cat shark that hatched around three weeks ago. When she hatched she still had a bit of yolk so I wasn't concerned about her eating, but now her yolk has been dissolved for over two and a half weeks and she shows absolutely no interest in eating. Ive tried krill, silversides...

    New Ocellaris not eating

    I recently purchased an ORA Snowstorm clown. It seemed to have an issue with its swim bladder upon arrival (not being able to stay buoyant) but after the first 24 hours that had gone away. Immediately upon introduction it paired with the ocellaris I had in my tank (the only fish at this point)...

    Thin Yellow Tang (Video)

    Hello All - About a year ago I had to move out of my home and put my 90G in storage. In the meantime, I set up a holding tank for my yellow tang and corals. The yellow tang has never really been on the fat, heavy side but always ate anything I put in the tank. The tang is not large and has been...

    Green Canary Blenny not eating

    Any one else have the issue where their Blenny will only eat frozen foods? I got this fish 4 months ago and I cannot get it to eat anything other that frozen. I go over a week at a time with only feed pellets in tank, and it will just not eat; hoping that it would get hungry and migrate over to...

    It’s been a week. When do I need to intervene to save my wrasse who is always buried?

    I added a couple new wrasses to a tank with two established leopard wrasses. One of the two new wrasses is also a leopard wrasse. It is intimidated by the other fish and stays buried all day except a couple days where it emerged for less than five minutes. I managed to catch the interaction on...

    Do you feed Frozen food?

    Most of my friends in the hobby almost exclusively feed frozen food in their aquariums with some sprinkles of dry food/ nori strips here and there. What does everyone else do? If you don't feed frozen why not? Is anyone able to exclusively feed live??

    Got a new Coral Beauty Friday evening and I broke every cardinal new fish rule that reefers follow and I’ve learned my lesson.
