    I say this because often newly bought fish are on the thin side and it's body will need energy to fend off the ich.

    Hopefully it will go for something quickly for you. I would probably pass on frozen brine unless you can't find anything else. As it is said that there is little nutrition in that food.

    Good luck!

    Call the store, they may have other advise as well.
    Where can I get the rods food?

    Sounds like your doing the rite thing. Just feed very lightly today and keep your fingers crossed. The food we make is the best thing for him but until the ich is gone feeding should be kept to a minimum. Sorry I took so long to get back, we've just been so busy here. Always call the store for any questions that need a quick answer. If the tang dies we will help you with some store credit for your troubles, but this is a common experience with all powder tangs. Thanks, Ray

    It looks like its clearing up. But he hiding a lot of the time. I haven't seen him eat yet or the naso. But the naso is out checking the food out when I'm feeding so I figure its only a matter of time for him. Any advice to get them...mainly the powder brown to eat?
