Your taste buds don't know what they're missing !!
Gluten, grease, fat, carbs, salt ... mmmm

Brad try these things:

1. Prazipro dip. If it has flukes it won't eat and flukes are hard to see.
2. Live Manila clams in a half shell, spear the meat with a knife so that the juices cause the fish to attract to it.
3. Go to sushi restaurant and ask them to sell you fish roe that they use for their sushi. Flying fish roe is good size. I sometimes use them as a treat for anthias and wrasses.

Tried all those, except prazi, which I find suppresses appetite for longer than I figured I had.
I've added him to the DT in hopes he grazes on something and builds an appetite. But I'm not hopeful.

Although, I should have gone to the sushi place for roe instead of the market. Could have grabbed some tuna rolls

So, any luck yet ?

Next time you're on the Mainland you'll have to pick up some of my leftover freshwater stuff.
I've some Hikari fresh bites and Wardley's (probably expired) for you
It's all free big guy.

Plus you'll need to grab some of my extra special cubes of Greg's Ultra Marine Food.
This can be had for frags ... full of lots of fishy goodness for your critters to feed on !
I use PE and Hikari mysis, rotifers, fresh shrimps, fresh clams, regular brine and gut-loaded spirulina brine, baby brine, mega marine regular, mega marine angel with sponges, Ocean Plankton ... I think that's all
Oh, and I also add lots of AminOmega and GarlicPower to half of all my mixes; half regular, half dosed.
Doesn't matter what brand you use, just what I bought last time. Lasts a long time.

LMK when you're coming to town Brad and I'll set you up with some food
It takes some time to process, so I need a little advance warning, or you can have stuff out of my freezer if need be

Makes a great cube for anything finicky

J&L will bring in all kinds of stuff if you need something shipped

[Aquattro]

I don't usually buy fish that aren't eating, but with J&L you buy it or lose it, so I took a chance. Bad choice.
Fish is rummaging around behind the rock work in the DT, hopefully eating something. If not, shrimps will have a buffet in a couple days.

I'll bring by some New Era food to try tomorrow. I've had good luck with that food on some finicky fish because of the smell. Worth a shot anyways.

Ok. He's in the DT, so not sure it will get to him, but worth a shot.
