Can you post a pic of your stand? How much was it? I might buy/make one because I don't like the stand I'm using now.

Also got a spiny urchin and a banghai cardinal. This tank is looking awesome. All black and white. The lfs is going to try and order us a African red knob sea star.

Put some algae in there or flake food... The clown will come around.

 

[coffeetwitch]

no the midnight angel. sadly no clowns yet. i do have a piece of red marine algae in there on a clip. so far no interest in it. can i leave it in there all day?

 

[slitherbomb]

You could try brine shrimp. I would call the lfs to see what they have been feeding it.

 

[coffeetwitch]

snowflake eel and midnight angel not eating.

 

[coffeetwitch]

for who? the snowflake eel was eating brine shrimp, the store fed him freeze dried. we have been feeding him frozen. the midnight was a shipment from the store. in his tank 1 night so i dont think he has been fed by anyone but us.

 

[coffeetwitch]

sorry krill. not brine. ill try the brine.

 

[slitherbomb]

Yeah the snowflake eel should accept frozen foods pretty easily, at least in my experience. The angel should eat the brine. Unfortunately, the only angel I had died within a week without eating anything.

 

[coffeetwitch]

the eel was eating well until friday. his normal feeding every 2day. it has now been 4-5 days since he last ate.

i DO NOT want to loose this angel. he is too cool to watch and too pretty to die.

maybe stress? wholesale to store to my tank in such a short time maybe?

 

[slitherbomb]

Probably stress. Leave it alone for another day or two. As for the eel, don't worry about it. They can go for long periods of time without eating. They are also very hardy. I really feed mine every 3-4 days now and he doesn't mind. He'll show me he's hungry.

 

[coffeetwitch]

eel: he was out swimming last night so i tried to feed him then with no luck. ill try again later.

 

[coffeetwitch]

maybe a food thing idk. midnight is picking at the live rock. if he is anything like the coral beauty thats normal behavior. maybe time is what he needs.

 

[coffeetwitch]

Bad news. The eel didn't make it. I was running too late to work to check my water parameters.

 

[Kio707]

Wow... I'm surprised.... Sorry to here that man....

 

[coffeetwitch]

Yeah it's got me worried about the rest of them
