I got my first fish!!

[jess128]

Yesterday I got 2 Percula Clownfish from Aquarium Illusions! I put them in a clean bucket and did the slow drip acclimation process. It was quite a pain to get going, my siphon hose didn't work so well, I think I'll get a different one for my next fish. But the clowns seem to be doing really well. I acclimated for about 3 hours before putting them into the tank.

They've survived the night and look really good. They haven't eaten anything yet though. I bought the same flake food that they were being fed at AI, and then same flakes are still floating on the water surface from last night. I didn't really expect them to eat anything last night but I thought they would today. They also seem to have a lot of trouble swimming near the filter and powerheads. Right now the powerheads are turned off. Any advice on feeding them?

My Dad has my digital camera right now, but I'll take some pictures as soon as I get it back and post them here.
