I might be missing something here but there is an obvious factor here: the food. You said the previous owner fed pellets but you are feeding frozen. If it ate pellets but is spitting out frozen, feed pellets. It may actively pursue the food more.
My Potters Leopard is fairly ambivalent to most frozen and live foods and will only nibble when there, if at all. But damn it loves pellets. It will out compete my anthias for pellets. If your other fish are mostly pelagic feeders, you could try making a seafood/pellet mush and smearing it on a small rock, then freezing it. Put it in the tank the next day and the wrasse can pick off pieces as it thaws at its leisure without needing to compete with tank mates. This works well if you don't have many other fish that feed off the live rock. |
i have a bunch of nls pellets if you want to try to see if it likes it:P cyclopeeze is another good idea too:)

Another food I had success with was fish eggs (capelin roe). They, for the most part, aren't pelagic feeders so. They mostly go after stuff on rocks and larger floating particles about 1mm in diameter. |
I have pellets which I have dropped in, not on a regular basis tho. If she's out before I leave I will throw some in this morning. I will try all the suggestions to see what works.
I did mixed some cyclopeeze in with the food last night, she was still spitting back out. The 180 has been going since March this year, not a mature tank, but the 55 has been up for over a year. I don't think I have much time to turn this around so will try a bit of everything. |
I feed mine with live white worms once a day and she's growing bigger and fatter. She's just a little bably but growing fast on that diet. She was so tiny when I got her, less than one inch and now she's doubled in size at least.
I have mine for 2 months, feeding her once a day during the week and twice a day during weekend. She is doing very well on white worms diet. The live white worms and fish roe are the only things she eats. I tried cyclopeeze, PE mysis and she won't eat that. Quote:
