ReeFit Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 Got my shipment in today, as usual always packaged like a pro and on time. The stuff looks great, nothing was DOA and all seems to be doing well. Finally! After the 4th attempt I now have a very promising new member to my fish tank. I've been wanting one of these but i could never keep one past 2-3 days. This one is out and swimming around with the rest of the fish after only 5-6 hours. Knock on wood and wish me luck. Big thanks to Kevin for the hook up and top notch customer service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kilmca Posted November 5, 2010 Share Posted November 5, 2010 love the potters wrasse, i would add one but i think my christmas wrasse would harass it and they hard enough to keep without another fish messing with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AC-k3v Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 Robert, has it taken food yet in your tank? It was eating here before it left. Though that doesn't mean much. My current Potter's Wrasse was eating until it got in my tank. It took a week before it ate in my tank. Now i have the fattest female potter's i have ever seen. First one to eat and has no problems pushing all my other wrasse a side to get food. Best of luck! And big mahalo for the kind words!

lewisriverfisherman Posted November 6, 2010 Share Posted November 6, 2010 I fed mine cyclopeze to encourage it to eat in the beggining as it would not eat shrimp, then after a week i switched to shrimp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin I have yet to witness it eat, but i haven't been watching real close. it definitely gets excited and swims around with the other fish when feeding time occurs. I have a fuge full of 1000's of copepods and i seed all my tanks every week with pods from it. I may grab a bottle of cyclopeeze or some tigerpods to help with the transition.

ReeFit Posted November 21, 2010 Author Share Posted November 21, 2010 YES! Finally after two weeks of watching and hoping that my potters wrasse would eat frozen food. I tried pellets, mysis, krill, blended everything, brine, cyclops and he just wouldn't touch anything but live copepods i was tossing in every few days from my fuge. I just witnessed today him eating frozen brine and arctipods. I'm so happy!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
