Just got him 2 days ago and not sure whether hes eating but i know they can b fussy hes seems ok none of the other fish are bothering him fed him brine shrimp but not sure whether he got any as i have a greedy picasso trigger fish and sebae clownfish any suggestions

Right Claire brine shrimp alone will not keep it going, its very low in nutriants, he needs a well mature tank with lots of pod life and a few glass nems to settle him in, then try feeding with a pepet with mysis and mixed krill every day at least 3 -4 times a day, he will start to feed from it as mine did.

This is my fella about 4inch and a greedy fella had him about a year now

thanks will try how do i go about feeding him this am not an expert yet have had my tank for 4 months now as i have greedy fish who usually get to everything i put in first

Try using a syringe without the needle mix some food up in tank water in a glass, then suck up the food and water into the syringe, and gently squirt the mix into the tank near the CB he will get use to being feed like this after a few days, but at the same time try and feed the other fish at the other end of the tank, the CB will peck at the syringe when he gets use to it, which means its telling you it wants more.

Hope this helps
