Hello.
I have played with tropicals for years and have just taken the marine plunge.
I found this forum on the web and boy is there info here! It's a bit overwhelming for a novice like me.
I have set up a 55 gal 7 days ago:
Emporer 400B bio wheel, lights, water jet, etc..
Three days after set up I introduced 3 damsels, a couple of fire hermits as well as a couple of pounds of live rock to start the cycle.
Two of the damsels are eating fine (ocean nutrition prime flake). However, the 3 stripe has touched nada. He appears healthy, but will not eat. I know that these guys are supposed to be expendable during break-in, but my wife is giving me a fit about the poor guy.
Any ideas?
Thanks much.
