Gosh it took forever!

It took my Coral Beauty 16 days before he would start coming out swimming and eating. For the longest time he hung out in the back of the aquarium hidden behind LR. I seriously thought he was going to die. I never saw him eat or anything. I switched over to feeding one a day, like Bang Guy advised, and I think my fish are happy with that change. I do feed a great deal less than I was every other day. I felt like I had to feed more, and it was causing bio load issues. Back to the beauty. He coming swimming every so elegantly through the rock and out in the open, and grazes around. It's great. I also noticed when not doing well, he developed a couple of white spots. They're long gone now. Hopefully, everything stays going well. Thanks for the advice Bang Guy.

you gotta give coral beautys time to come around, they are very shy fish but after that they are quiet hardy fish

I have had this one for a month. Still not eating the nori, flake, pellets or frozen mysis. She does swim around the tank though looking as though she is looking for something to graze on. I have seen her peck at the rocks a couple of times. My guess is she may be eating the pods that are everywhere when the lights go out. She doesn't look like she is starving, so she is eating something!
