What to feed to McCosker's wrasse?

[manishkasera]

I have McCosker's wrasse since last four days only. I tried flakes, pellets and frozen brine shrimp, he only eats frozen shrimp.

Since this is my first experience with this fish thought of taking advise here.

Anything that will help me keep him healthy will be appreciated.

Frozen mysis will be readily accepted.

All of the flasher wrasses and fairy wrasses are zooplanktivores. They like mysis shrimp and Cyclop-Eeze. You can use any of the frozen foods designed for carnivores provided you chop it up fine enough if it isn't already in very tiny pieces. For instance, I found that the frozen squid pieces are too large and have to be chpped up much smaller if you want your wrasses to be able to eat them.

Usually they will eat flake foods (for carnivores) after they realize that it's food. It just doesn't look like their natural foods. They should eat pellets provided they are tiny enough.

Thanks guys, sounds to me a trip to LFS is required.

So seems mysis is a good option.
