I'm guessing you missed the post I made seconds after that one, making
fun of myself because I made a spelling error.
That makes your reply N/A.
Sorry. = (

I have had a similar experience with Plecos, I found they could learn
to come to the surface and feed on flake food even from my finger.
I might try enticing the Clowns with flake food. In the morning they
seem very daring.-


Do you have any frozen foods such as Bloodworms or Brine Shrimp?
Flake, let's face it, is a bit boring for fish.


Don't tell my fish, flake is all they get and they couldn't get more
active in the morning.

Anyone who feeds both knows the difference between how the fish go
after flake vs bloodworms or brine, etc.
If you have anything like that, try it.
Another note, if they're aldready shy, trying it at the surface may
not help at all with the situation.
You have to coax them out when you are moving about the
tank ...something that might usually freak them out a bit.
With a feeding instrument (be it medicine dropper or an actual feeding
tube used in marine set ups) you'll be able to get them coming out to
grab food and they'll get used to you. Gettting them to come to you
when there isn't any food takes a little time.
My Clowns would be at the front of the tank begging for attention
anytime I went to or walked past the tank.


I have a chair next to my 75 gallon tank that I use for part of my
morning exercise. When I sit there bobbing up and down I have a rapt
audience! g

It was the coolest thing. There were Angels, female bettas and my
clowns...all going back and forth trying to get my attention.
Careful of those eye spines though. Sometimes they'll get into a
feeding frenzy and if you have the food in your fingers, just be
careful.


I would see more of my fish if I weeded the live plant growth more.
The SAEs rest on top of the growth while the CLs rest under it. Very
little bare gravel. I have 4 Cory cats that I almost never see,
whereas the 2 Plecos roost more near the top of the tank.

Everything aquatic comes via internet orders. Flake food is very
handy and my fish do well. I don't cook steaks for myself. We all
compromise one way or another. As my current stock of fish die, I
plan to retire all of my tanks but the 75. I want to outlive my fish
and 2 dogs so I can take care of them. I am worried that the SAEs and
the CLs and Plecos may live too long and I will reach the "finish
line" before them! g

ROFL.................
I take it that was a YES....you missed the post.

Oh, and no thanks. I have no need for your sex toys, Thanks for
offering though.
I'm not "adding trash to these groups", as you say. I don't cross post
like you do. It's considered rude.
Now of course there are times when it calls for it, but that is a
rarity. So lose the plural form of group when speaking of me.
As for "trash"...I didn't add trash in this thread. I gave advice
about the Clowns, and to you I gave a pointer for when you make your
many posts of the day. You rush through them and by doing so you
really jumble up words making it very difficult for somebody to figure
out what you're trying to say.
That's not trash sweetie, it was damned good advice to you.
Somebody else usually just tells you to get lost (but usually with
many explatives involved), however, I was trying to help you post a
more clear message.
