reefmaniac, what are you feeding?? From my experience, very few fish can refuse brine shrimp - live or frozen (enriched if possible) are fine. Whilst not overly nutritious, it generally gets them feeding and buys you some time to get them eating other prepared foods. Nori is also good, and should become a staple for your tang - hold it in the water for a minute and then rub it between your fingers to effectively shred it. I would be surprised if your YT did not eat this.

Good luck.

Baby pods of some type.

baby pods? i dont know what to do with it on the glass. i want to clean the glass but it would run over them eventually kiling them maybe??:confused:

 

[MagicJ]

You will probably find that they are mainly on the glass during the night.

You're not looking for an excuse not to clean the glass are you??

Some might get killed, but if they are on your glass there is a fair chance that they are also on your live rock.
