Just got mine today hes pretty shy hiding behind rocks and in caves seems to act like a blue hippo tang playing dead lying on its side swirling its yellow tail ...how long until he gets comfertable and starts swimming and eating normally ?
Is Brine Shrimp ok to feed him and formula 1 pellets ? also how much and how often should this animal be fed ?
ok

Mine came out after about a day or two and I feed him a varied diet of meaty foods, mainly squid and krill that are in the same mix. I feed him 3x a day regularly which spoils him
, but I hear that one or two times a day is also fine.

I just did a Nitrate test and it was absolute 0 I'm so excited as I haven't got it to 0 in 8 months

The Blue Throat is still not eating I put in some brine shrimp all the tankmates eat and are happy and the food passes right by the trigger and it just hangs there like it can't see the food it's been 3 days I'm getting worried. I need him to eat so he won't starve.

Ok if I were you, now I would go to my lfs and buy a variety of different foods just to try and get him/her to eat. Mine really turned on to mysis.
