Lemonpeel don't eat for 3 weeks

[dominic_chan]

I got a lemonpeel angel 3 weeks ago and still fail to feed it. During the first 2 week in the Q tank, I did try flake, brine, formula 1 and some veg . The lemonpeel didn't bite one. I placed it to the tank with LR and a one clown fish 1 week ago. The tank has been set up for almost 1 yr. The lemonpeel still refuses to eat anything I put in, but keeps on grazing the LR.

I'm think about catching it and injecting some food into its mouth before it starves to dead..... :(

Pls suggest any other method to make it eat.

Thanks....

if its grazing on your rocks then that is a good sign! Give it time and hopefully it will eat. don't try to force feed it! you will stress it out just trying to catch it. Hope things work out bud.

Hmm What kinds of food exactly?

Have u tried frozen food?.. or flakes?


Maybe try live brine, or frozen mysis shrimp. or anything frozen... You can also give it more time.. and watch it.. Look at the stomach... to see if its starving or not..

GOOD LUCK!!
