Received an order of wild caught fish/inverts this week. If you had special requests in for specific fish and I didn’t contact you it is because that particular fish was not in stock or not the size you wanted. Those that did get contacted I will be open Saturday from 11am-3pm for pickup. If you opted for copper treatment they will be ready in 21 days.
I also picked up some extra fish and inverts that are available. Due to space constraints I didn’t order tangs. Many folks wanted copperband butterfly’s so using the space for those this go around.

Sweet Brian, I was thinking that they didn't have any. When can I come and get my fishes?

CoralBeauties · « **Reply #19 on:** February 08, 2018, 23:21:28 »

Hows the qt going with the copperbands? They looked really nice last weekend but I know how hard it can be to get them eating which is a shame since they are such a beautiful fish.

Humphrey · « **Reply #20 on:** February 09, 2018, 07:24:42 »

merlin said at the meeting that corals galore has live black worms, and sometimes those clams on the half shell work too...

They can be difficult.

so far so good. many are eating Mysis. surprisingly I haven't lost any yet but it is still early. they will be ready on 21st

Humphrey · « **Reply #22 on:** February 09, 2018, 20:58:34 »

Lazy you think having a number of them teaches those who aren’t eating to eat?

Humphrey · « **Reply #23 on:** February 09, 2018, 21:02:21 »

Also lazy which is harder to get going—. The copperbands or the moorish idols?

lazylivin · « **Reply #24 on:** February 09, 2018, 21:12:57 »

Yes I do think having others teach them. It seems after a couple start eating more join in. So maybe there is something to that.

Moorish idol is much easier to get to eat. However they must have fast metabolisms because they need to eat a lot more to not waste away. The moorish idol also seem to ship very poorly. Idols will eat most everything and the copperband only eat a couple types of food if lucky.

ckgoad · « **Reply #25 on:** February 09, 2018, 23:57:28 »

Do you have any Hippos left? If so price please

lazylivin · « **Reply #26 on:** February 10, 2018, 00:53:42 »

I dont sorry. They have been pretty slim pickings lately

lazylivin · « **Reply #27 on:** February 20, 2018, 00:45:10 »

If you had a fish reserved they are available for pickup this Saturday from 11-3.

Miles · « **Reply #28 on:** February 20, 2018, 10:22:19 »

Any CBBs left?

lazylivin · « **Reply #29 on:** February 20, 2018, 16:49:30 »

Hi Miles, all the CBB are spoken for. If most fish get picked up this week I can order more. It takes 21 days to get through quarantine after arrival.

If you could order on for me the next time around that would be great.

I got a report from someone that picked up a cbb Yesterday that it has already made a big dent in their aptasia population. Hope everyone has luck. They are eating mysis and brine as well.

Does anyone know where I can get clams on 1/2 shell? I hear they take to that good as well. Would like to have that as well for next batch. Looking for a grocery store where I can get them. The pet store retail package is pricey.

merlin3 · « **Reply #32 on:** February 25, 2018, 19:46:33 »

i have bought them at i think gerbers but more pricey then grocery. my copperband doesn't seem to care for them. I highly recommend live black worms for anyone struggling to get a copperband to eat.

lazylivin · « **Reply #33 on:** February 25, 2018, 22:07:08 »

Are they a pain to raise them? Where can I get them?

merlin3 · « **Reply #34 on:** February 25, 2018, 22:22:43 »

Im not sure if you can raise them or not. Corals galore sells them really cheap or did, havent checked in a while.

Wall_Tank · « **Reply #35 on:** March 04, 2018, 13:57:53 »

Mine has not been eating mysis, he has been picking at the rock, so I swapped a new piece of live rock in.

CG does have black worms, just grabbed them today. 3.99 for 2 oz by volume. Not sure how hard they are to culture.... here is a link to buy bigger volumes. https://www.aquaticfoods.com/BlackwormCareM.html

By the way...... coral and fish quality is nothing compare to Lazy’s Frag House.

PaulB has a thread on R2R for raising white worm. Work as well as black worms but less nutritious. Very simple to raise. I may try it as well.

Took him a little, but started devouring the worms. The clownfish loved them too....the little guy sucking them up like spaghetti.

Stitch · « **Reply #38 on:** March 04, 2018, 17:07:41 »

Talk about aptasia control. I bought one of those copper band butterflies. While it is eating mysis shrimp it also cleared out a 4"x8" patch of aptasia in just a couple days.

AJ · « **Reply #39 on:** March 04, 2018, 20:43:10 »

I got my CBB from Brian last weekend, and after just a few days, I do not have one aptasia in my tank! On an even better note, he is absolutely destroying the Mysis I feed the tank with. Now I need a tang to control the hair algae 😁 Brian, here I come lol.

CoralBeauties · « **Reply #40 on:** March 04, 2018, 22:26:01 »

Mine is picking at my rocks but isnt eating my mysis yet. I am feeding black worms which it is eating good. What brand of mysis are you all feeding that your cbb is eating? I bought San Fransisco brand.
thanks
Jeff

AJ · « **Reply #41 on:** March 04, 2018, 22:58:24 »

I use BSD Mysis. I think the trick was feeding Mysis and Brine for the first few days, then switching to only Mysis.
