umm according to henry .. (if its the same fish he talked abt, highly likely its same) it will eat aiptasia but may nip at tubeworms.. other than tt its safe.. once its settled down .. i will confirm thoses claims .. but in henry's thread got alot of satisfied customers so i think should be fine la ..

i need to ask ... i saw my MI eating a few ( like one or two bits ) of henry's food mix .. swallowing a spitting out mysis ... and pecking furiously ( for like 2 seconds ) at my LR ... is this considered as the MI eating already ?

Bro... relax lah... at least yours is not covered with White Spots ;) I think it's expected for them not to feed every single meal... if so easy to keep... you already see a MI in every reefers tank lah... :lol:

Don't let it affect your day :)

Who tell you I'm a guy?!? I'm actually a ###### babe trying to find SLAVES in here... :lol: Sorry :off:

Back to your MI... mine also spit out the first 4 to 5 LBS... after that, it started eating... so don't stop feeding after it spits... it will eat eventually especially when the other fishes are like "hungry ghosts"... yes LBS is a good try. Don't pour in the water, use a net. :whistle:wub::eyebrow:

Sun can "tahan" a few days without feeding... worry about the MI first. You can always dose DT or something to feed them for the time being... I think my MI is more stable than yours despite the "bloody" white spots. I got a feeling mine will survive and yours will too :)

and my first!

dsc00542ca.jpg

seems like this lucky guy snagged some food ... put it in the best location .. good flow and where food usually flows past ..

swop is also possible ... cheap zoos or something ...

PS: its not tt the corals are unhealthy ... its just that they are for my tank.

the sea fan is too big ... and the leathers look awkward in my tank ... dunno where to put them ..
