Bro,

When i bought the fish, they were feeding it with frozen brine shrimp.

so i presume once i release it in my tank they will eat the same food.

I guess they need more time to get use to the new surrounding.

Btw thanks for the advice lemon. i'll get my hands on live brine on the weekends.

Ah so you were the one who bought them from reborn? I went to find them today

Maybe it is the stress from being introduced to a new environment, see if they will eat after a couple of days when they're hungry.

I bought mine from Reborn as well... What i did was put them inside a beta box for few days so that i can isolate them for feeding.. Once they start taking 4-5 mysis each feeding time, i released them into the main tank... Generally they are quite daring and will feed on frozen mysis very fast.. Hope this info helps...

[baudi]

I had one i took from reborn just before CNY. it's gonig well and feeding very well. Live Mysis, frozen Mysis, it will even take flakes.

[liverpool4ever]

Thanks all for the advice.

Both fishes are already eating.

I guess they need some time to get use to the environment

BTW i'm thinking of adding 2 more to the current collection.

[yikai]

i dunno if u should....i not sure if borbonias will get territorial. must go research first. but i think like other anthias, shud be ok/

[gny]

I bought one >1mth ago.

I use the same method as bro Borinz.

Always swim in the open.

A BIG eatter

Wish can buy a few more

Need to cut cost in this hard times...
