help,

just gotten an orange clown from Iwarna, but up to date (3-days) it still refuses to eat anything.. it looks healthy and is swimming around.

i've tried formula1, formula2, frozen bloodworm, frozen mysis, and even live brine shrimp.

blue tang, chromis, firefish are all eating fine. i've lost one previous one due to not eating as well..

yupp i find this batch of clowns weird too.. no other fishes bullying it.. all peaceful mates..

on closer inspection, i found its gills are sorta spiky? its not round, but looks zig-zaged..

gave it a freshwater bathe..

I also got the same problem as you last time. But i changed my tactic and now they are fine and even paired up. Following is my 2 cents...

1) Slowly acclimate the fish just buy.

2) Dip 3 min in the kill parasite solution.

3) Quarantine the fishes before putting into the main tank. (Separate the individual fish or they intend to fight each other)

4) put into the main tank at the same time after separately quarantine.

5) Important thing is to buy the clown fish of different size. (2 to 3 times)

my method is may be wrong but works for me. :paiseh:
