He's alive but looking skinny. Hasn't eaten at all, so I've been debating adding a damsel to the tank for him to try to eat. Tried burping the air out again and rubbed his tummy briefly but it didn't seem to help. Actually seemed to make things worse, right after he floated to the top and I think he sucked some air

Was talking to fellow reefers yesterday and they asked about the flow, and when I mentioned there isn't a lot, they wondered about the amount of oxygen in the water. So I added a bubblier just in case.

for the record this wasnt my advice......adding air bubbles to a tank with a fish that isnt supposed to be exposed to air doesnt seem like a good idea to me.....put a real powerhead in the tank

And blow your candy apple zoas around all to heck and risk loosing them when they've been doing well?

For those who don't know it's a 10g with the flow from a rio nano skimmer and a koralia nano power head.

I posted an update in my tank journal thread. He's still alive but will only eat live food now and he still floats around

Sean at AI told me about Metronidazole by seachem and mentioned that it might help, but I don't know to much about it so I haven't tried it yet.
