siskiou Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Our Ocellaris clown (we've had her for 5 years, now) has stopped eating. There are no outward signs of any illness, water quality is fine, corals are fine. She moved from the front to the back of the tank 3 days ago and hasn't touched food since. She hovers over an indent in the sand and pretty much stays there. Radar is the only fish in a 60G cube. I'm going to do my regular water change today, but other than that, I have no idea what to do. Garlic soaked food is also not tempting her. Edited to add: Problem solved! I had added piece of paper to acclimate a couple of corals to my MH lights, and apparently this was freaking out the clown. When I removed the paper for an hour today, she was right up there, begging for food! DOH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidalsculpin Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 Guess radar was feeling boxed in! Good to hear she is ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
