Give the arctic pods a try for the CBB. They sell them at OA and so far everything eats it in my tanks.

Day 8 and still not eating! The CBB is thin but does not appear stressed. It is adapting to the new tank. It occas picks at the liverock but I don't think it is eating anything. All the aiptasia is still present. It didn't touch the clams in the 1/2 shell. I have tried 3 brands of mysis shrimp and two brands of brine shrimp also without success. I will keep trying.

I tried soaking the mysis and brine shrimp in garlic and adding garlic to the tank during feeding with no luck. I have not tried blood worms but will see if I can get some locally.
Thanks for the help.

Default Update

Well it is 21 days today. After 2 weeks not eating I finally found some blood worms locally and he likes them. I have been adding garlic and Selcon. I don't know if he would thrive on just blood worms? I am going to try tubifex worms next. I am scared to move him into my main tank with several damsels and tangs as he likely will starve if he only eats worms that are lying on the sand.
