I have recently set up a 46 gal tank with 25 lbs. live rock. I have one turbo snail, two hermit crabs, a firefish, and on Saturday I bought a pair of Percula clowns. Ammonia = 0, Nitrite =0, Nitrate = 5, pH = 8.4, Salinity = 1.025.
Maybe I'm overreacting a little bit, but I really don't want to lose any fish. My clowns seem to be acting just fine. They are very hyper and are constantly swimming around the tank. I have been trying to feed them the Formula II flakes, and they have absolutely no interest in the food whatsoever. They look too excited to eat. Other than the not eating, I can't tell that there is anything wrong with them. They are captive bred, just so you know.
I am wondering, is this just the stress from their change of scenery? Is there something wrong with them or maybe with the food I've been trying to feed them? I do still have some brown algae in the tank, but I'm planning on a water change when I get home today. Just wanted some input.
Thanks :notsure:
