Copperband Feeding

[Eversurf]

My copperband died last night. It has been a great fish and by far my favorite fish. He didn't come out for breakfast andkinda just hide in his cave....when I knocked on the glass he just stuck his head out and rested it the rocks looking at me. I found him upside down in a corner and I moved him back to his cave where he dissappeared....I have not seen him since.

Really sorry for your loss, they are a difficult fish to keep

Thanx guys...


So anyway I got a Jimmy2 (copperband) and I have had him for about a month and just tonight he started eating. Bloodworm was the pick...again. For the past month he has been picking at the rocks and I have seen the number of worms reduced to close to nothing.

I am now a firm believer of Bloodworms.

I will keep you guys posted.

is it in a reef tank?? Do these usually tend to not eat your prized corals or is it more on the risky side? a bunch of sources tell me that no butterfly can resist a fresh clam on a half shell but according to your experience, i guess they're wrong. Another way to get fish to eat is to get them to see other fish eat.
