+ACampbell Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 I got a replacement Yasha Hase Goby and a Hi Fin Red Banded Goby on Wednesday. Neither one of them will eat. They are in my 7 gal BF. I?ve been putting little pinches of Omega One flakes in several times a day, but it floats right in front of them and they don?t go for it? What are some tips to entice them to eat? I've gone through a lot of trouble to get these, so I would hate to see them starve to death. Thanks for your help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedude Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 Garlic, frozen food, and if that doesn't work try live brine to at least get them eating something. H20 Life makes a product called mini mysis which is perfectly sized for those gobies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+ACampbell Posted August 10, 2006 Author Share Posted August 10, 2006 Well I've been hard pressed to get a yasha that is a good shipper. This is my third attempt at this $50 beauty and today I got one in from alantis aquarium. It was floating upside down in the bag when I opened the box, but somehow I revived it and kept it alive. Its been hiding under a rock all day. I can tell that it is beathing, but I'm wondering if there is anything I can do for it to help it other than give is some time to adjust to its new tank. Any advice? These things are horrible shippers. Wish me luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishypets Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 Sounds like me when I was bound and determined to keep a power blue in my 75. I went through about 5 before I gave up. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GKarshens Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 Do you have trouble getting them to eat? I have found that live brine is a good way to get a fish started eating and then I switch to mysis and finally my home made goo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
