About a week ago I added 2 O.Clown's from the LFS and I think they were in extreme shock from a new arrival at the LFS and then into my tank on the same day or 2... it's a newly cycled tank (6-7 weeks), and I've had 5 B/G Chromis for a little while which have been doing excellent...
Anyhow to make a long story short, the smaller of the 2 Clowns only lasted 2 days without eating and then became "Crab Food"... the larger one went about 4-5 days eating nothing (after trying about 5-6 different food types) and I was sure he was also going to kick off. But he has started taking food better over the past day or two, and seems MUCH more lively and comes out to 'play' with the Chromis' and such.
Basically I wanted to know if/when I should try to add another O.Clown (probably from a different LFS) to replace the dearly departed 1st one (my first casuality, not counting snails, which also became Crab food).
Thanks,
