I've got a yellow tang in a 120g with a kole tang and a one spot foxface. Got them all three from live aquaria two weeks ago yesterday. Ive been feeding a mix of formula two, shrimp mysis, and green algae strips. The other two eat pretty aggressively, but the yellow tang is pretty passive. He only seems to nibble around on the scraps the other fish leave, hard to tell really if he is even eating at all. He does come hang out around the other fish at feeding time though and I haven't noticed any aggression. The yellow tang stays hidden in the rock work more than the other two. He comes out and swims around some and seem to swim just fine. But he is definitely the shyest of the group. He seems pretty thin to me too. Is the shyness and lack of appetite just due to the new environment or is it something I should be worried about?
Also planning to follow the prophylactic treatment in Humble Fish's QT article. Dosed the first round of prazipro yesterday, haven't noticed any changes in the fish since then. Pictures should be in the next post.
Thanks!
