SRC Member manta Posted January 1, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted January 1, 2005 me also just got a kole tang from henry. it's mainly pecking on LR. tried to train him to eat pellets. no luck. looking paler as the day goes by. all my other tangs n other fishes charge for pellets during each feeding. guess have to try frozen brine/mysis next.

SRC Member pegasus1010 Posted January 2, 2005 SRC Member Share Posted January 2, 2005 then try buying frozen mysis (brand mbf). soak it with garlic, then when it is fully thawed, crash it to more tiny pieces & pour the whole thing to the tank. observe if the kole feed on it.
