[Anemone]

hi all

my sunburst isnt eating. i've only seen it eating a couple pieces of frozen brineshrimp yesterday. (got the fish on sat from SL)

its not hiding a lot. comes out into the open every now n then. only hides when i get too close with my face or fingers.

anybody got their sunburst feeding properly?

let me know how u did it.

frozen brineshrimp mixed with live? will it work?

To get picky anthias eating.. I think the best bet is zooplankton from PR

Dt contain phytoplankton if i am not wrong.... Nah they can't be fed to sunburst, what they require is zooplankton( a bigger form of plankton that is eaten by lots of fishes)....

Yes pr is paradiz reef.... walking distance from boon keng MRT station

[Anemone]

boon keng.. will try to go tomorrow.

any idea how to get there? nv been there b4. boon keng...the new mrt line?

feeding cyclopeeze might do the trick........ but IMO, sunburst anthias is the most stubborn of the lot of anthias.

[Anemone]

tried cyclopeeze. it didnt even look at it.

clever b@sT@^d.

[lightningstrike]

good luck man...... i started off with 4...... now only left one. the other 3 died of hunger i guess. neber saw them feed.

[Anemone]

thanks a lot man. now im really inspired. lol

my sunburst started eating the golden fish eggs(frozen) ones I bought from Reborn...after that it is competing for food with the other fishes liaoz

[danano]

Feed them live BBS. I hatch them every other day. On other days, I try all other types of food.

They love live BBS, IME. I've had a pair for about a month now and both are doing well.

try cyclopeeze. my sunburst is eating juz abt anything i throw in now.

[Anemone]

tried cyclopeeze. mine seems pickier than most.

will try live brineshrimp later. hope the guy can tahan.

good luck to u!

Seriously... frozen zoopankton is the best bet..... I have tried zoo, cyclopeeze, bbs, frozen bbs, home made food by a reefer and even fish egg......... Still picky anthias start to feed on my zoos first
