    Trigger fish spits food out.

    wish he would sallow but nothing. even rosey red he chewed up to nothing and spit it only. I order some garlic guard should be here tomorrow. I used that on lionfish with great success.

    Trigger fish spits food out.

    i wish he would eat half or any. Never had a fish who would take it in his mouth and spit everything out. I had a lionfish for a long time that was hard to start feed But once he ate he ate. He gave up on the rosey red and spit it out. I just siphoned all the left over food ate. Ugh.

    Trigger fish spits food out.

    he starting to slim down. That's what i first thought. He even will take in flakes and them spitting them out. I just gave him a rosey red. I know it's not a great thing but he's had in his mouth for 4 minutes spitting and chewing. Looks like he's trying hard to sallow. It wasn't that big and...

    Trigger fish spits food out.

    i would say he's definitely opening and closing his mouth. The shrimp is fresh and tastes good, mysis and rest of the frozen food came in a couple days ago from the pet store. It's foiled sealed and rest of the fish love it. It's like he puts it in his mouth and says nah....and spits it out. I...

    Lion on eating strike

    I put him in his own 75 gallon tank. I think the clarki was over bearing even though the lion is bigger. I tried some krill, shrimp beef heart, etc. He seems more interested. I put some gold fish in for a couple of minutes today and yesterday. He watches them and wags his tail as he does before...

    Lion on eating strike

    Still nothing, his fins are healing rather quickly. I'm going to try a gold fish. Only see if he's eat one just to try something. If not this weekend i'll go 80 miles to the big cities and try to get some ghost shrimp. I'm really worried. I see on other posts lions dieing from this.
