Ya it's probably a bad thing because I stop in for something like fish food and leave with a rhomboid and multicolor!

Little guys been nipping at some nori, but mostly just grazing still.

I'm going to try filling an empty snail shell with mysis.

Tried fresh oysters, roe, and little neck clams today and still no luck. Wish I could put these guys in the DT I'm getting a bit concerned for the little guy.

I tried frozen blood worms and no interest. I've never really had any fish show any interest in frozen blood worms.

Stopped in today to feed the fish (perks of an 8 minute commute) and found that my rhomboid has lymph on his mouth. It looks pretty grotesque but his breathing is normal and he ate a little bit, not much but he did eat something. I'm going to likely do daily water changes to ensure pristine water quality and hopefully it'll clear up soon. If it doesn't clear up I'll likely take him home and put him in my larger QT.

My mystery wrasse also got lymph 4 days after it went into my QT...
It cleared up on its own after 3 weeks. But its like the herpes of the ocean and viral to the fish...so can or can not transfer to other fish.
None of the other fish look like its transfered to and the mystery has no signs of it.

And thats with being chased..nipped. jumped out and dried up and swam with only one fin.

But he looks good.

I don't think this was lymph after all. I posted this in another big forum and got some responses from some fish disease experts. Their opinion was that it looked more like an injury. It looks much better after two days. Still has a ways to go, but I can see improvement. He's been eating well so hopefully there's no issues.

For some reason my anthias have been dwindling in QT. I started with four and am down to 1. My suspicion is the CP that's being dosed. From my understanding CP can often times lead to a reduced appetite. Couple that with a fish that needs to be eating constantly and you can imagine what the outcomes going to be. I think for the next group of anthias, if treatment is needed, I'll go with cupramine instead.

This is what my rhomboid looked like yesterday

Looked pretty infected to me so I took him home and acclimated him to my QT. I treated the QT with Furan 2. He was up and swimming around this morning so hopefully he recovers well. Unfortunately the last of 4 Lyretails was found dead this morning. These things just slowly faded one at a time for no apparent reason. They'd be active, swimming around and eating the night before then dead in the morning.

My mystery wrasse now has popEye

They were eating really well. Once all these fish get reintroduced to the DT I'm going to try another harem of Lyretails and I'll setup an Autofeeder this time around.

Well I've tried everything short of live foods, which hopefully I'll be able to get some soon, but these Multibars have no interest in anything. I even tried taking an old SPS skeleton, cover it with LRS/Rods, re-freeze and then put into the tank for them to graze on. Nothing. The smallest one is looking real skinny now

Would they react better if you transfer them to the dt now ? They would have more to graze on and pec at
