Hi All,

I just start a new tank, 4 weeks today. First 2 fish die because of fighting, 1 week before I putted 2 clown fish and 1 shrimp.

They all very nervous for first few day. After 3 days.. I found out there was a pink colour worn with a lot of leg come out from the live rock. Immediately I remove the rock from my tank.

After that I saw there was few ( approx 6 ) small bug on the live rock, collecting those fish food.. Any one can help me? Do they harmless ? How should I remove them ?

Also, please to check what a clown fish really eat? I feed those fish food. They don't even look at it..

Hi, please post more details about your tank, type of water used.

Also, if possible give us more details about the size of your fish so that the regulars here can make a more accurate diagnosis.

There are many species of clownfish and many species of shrimps.. So either a photo or a short description of how your inhabitants look will also help..

I want to help, but I don't want to speculate and give your advice without knowing too much about your tank..

Cheers,

Hmmmm clowns are just not as stable and hardy as most thought.... Hmmm next time, try to ask them to feed to see feeding response before buying...:) they just die suddenly for no reason at times...;) so at least if u know they are feeding at the shop and not at ur tank even after a few days, u know that its ur tank parameters/problems...:) do share ur parameters, size of tank and such for a better diagnosis like what most said...:)

Fresh fishes and inverts! What's next? To the salty side of marine of course!:)
