Can't Get My Tailspot to Eat
Just got a new pair of tailspot blennies yesterday. I have tried feeding them formula 1 (thawed with garlic) and squid but not takers. I haven't seem them eat algae in the tank or anythign like that, but they otherwise seem pretty happy. Anyone have any tips here? Anythingelse I should try feeding these guys? Thanks!

Mine ate algea off the rocks and glass for a couple weeks before my clown goby taught him how good mysis was. Give them a few days, lots of fish freak out in new surroundings, mine didn't even move around for a day or two.

I did get them from live aquaria ... they aren't banging their faces against the glass ... I will try some mysis tomorrow and see if they like it (will have to find a LFS in New York, unfortunately).

You just got yours yesterday? I wouldn't be too concerned yet. When I got mine I didn't even see him for the first couple of days -- and this is in my 29.
Give them a couple more days.

mine only eats seaweed on the clip, mysis and bs. ive tied foruml 1 & 2 granules but no joy. he does occasionally eat new life spectrum small fish forumla, but not always and only if its soaked in zoe/garlic. if i forget to add seaweed clip for a few days he starts to look skinny!
