Hi all,

I have a tailspot blenny. He is chopping down on the various algaes and something in the chaeto (or the chaeto itself)in my tank.

He hasn't touched any of the foods I have tried putting in there.

He is the only fish in a BC14 right now. There is enough stuff in the tank for him to munch on, but I'd like to get something to supplement.

Any suggestions?

Thanks much.

Try some spirulina brine..often carried by chain pet stores and lfs. Then slip in some small size mysis (hikari mysis is tiny) later if he eats the brine.

I have also had success with formula1 flake and new life spectrum marine pellet.

I recently weaned a picky baby convict Tang. He's a pig now.

I have a starry that was slow to eat at first. He now eats everything. He seems to like the frozen foods best, but eats pellets, mysis, etc....
