Manny Tavan Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Can you find those locally? I have a picky copperband in QT who hasn’t eaten in three days. I’ll try a fresh clam today but I also want some live blackworm as back up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabbyCrabs Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 I've seen them but can't remember where. Maybe Kay's off division? I think that's the name but I'm not 100% that's where I saw them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albertareef Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Might try the Wet Spot in Hollywood district if that is more convenient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manny Tavan Posted April 16, 2019 Author Share Posted April 16, 2019 sounds like most places with freshwater will carry them. I'll try the shop on division. It's close by. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manny Tavan Posted April 17, 2019 Author Share Posted April 17, 2019 I tried everything. Won’t eat clam, live black worm, or even giant live copepods/amphipods... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrabbyCrabs Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Try reef nutrition roe or arctipods. When I first got my fish I tried a bunch and that's what got them eating. Now they don't touch arctipods but eat everything from pellets to several frozen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrabbyCrabs Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 ÇB's tropical is where I get mine. It's always super fresh with long expiration date. Call before going as they have limited stock. I also like oyster feast from them. My fish try to eat it, they go nuts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Its been at last five years, but I have gotten them to eat by packing some rods food in an old coral skeleton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
