![]() Too bad BA's doesn't have a fish reference book to look up the fish they are selling so folks know they are getting the fish the store says they are getting. Or maybe they do have such a book, and no one thought to look in it.
Anyway, after a bit of investigation, I found the following quote at http://www.blackwell-synergy.com/doi...5.2003.03833.x Quote:
This fish appears to be a rather specific feeder and probably wouldn't eat shrooms anyway. I have a latticed butterfly in a softie tank, with xenia, green and brown star polyps, and various mushrooms. Picks at the mushrooms a bit, and eats the tentacles off zoas and button polyps. It also eats PE mysis and scallops cut in half, scored, then secured to a small piece of LR with a piece of plastic onion bag and elastic. The scallop is a big hit with our dwarf angel and fairy wrasse. The scallop is left in the tank for four hours, then removed to prevent the fish from eating spoiled food. Before you bought it, did you ask to see it feed? If so, what did it eat? I would also seriously consider taking it back. Last edited by Beverly; 03-26-2006 at 08:55 PM. |
