Greg's 75g

Chris, all the dudes came from J&L, so maybe the same batch as yours
Definately spending more time in the sump room right now

Things are looking up
Brine was spat out today, but now the Clown and both PJs are eating blood worms
I'll give the Bangaii another try tonight with some garlic flake

[gregzz4]

Bangaii is still not eating
Today I tried some garlic soaked ( Brightwell garlic power ) mysis, bloodworms and fortified brine shrimp
The PJs and the clown loved all of it
I went to J&L and most, but not all, of their's are eating
If this dude doesn't eat tomorrow morning, I'll have to take him back and get one of the ones that are

I don't want to stress him out with another move, but Jeff has told me to bring him back
Poor little dude

[Nano]

damn that suck man. Hopefully you get better luck this time

Did you ask Jeff exactly what the Bangaii was being fed at the shop? I find that feeding the exact same thing, at the exact same time as what the store did, and in the same manner, can really help to get fussy eaters eating.

[gregzz4]

I've been feeding the same mysis, bloodworms, vitamins and garlic that they use
I watched them feed it last night and a few of their bangaii didn't eat it, but the rest pigged it all down
Today my PJs and clown ate it all again, but the bangaii ignored all of it
I hate to do it, but he's goin' back today

any chance he's getting bullied or being stressed by anything?

[gregzz4]

No stress from the other fish that I can see. He's the biggest of the bunch and the others take no food that is near him, but after it passes by him, they will jump on it

He's acting just as the others at the store I observed last night that weren't eating;
Swims to the food, turns away from it and hovers

I've done a whole lot of reading on Bangaii not eating. What I've read has not left me with any confidence that he will turn around anytime soon
He has no belly to speak of so, in a nutshell, tonight will be 4 days and back he goes
