I bought a blue surgeon fish, an anemone, and a cleaner shrimp from Igor on a whim. Everything arrived well and in excellent condition, so I ask. P.S. The fish is something!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Joe

Is Kuzovok eating already? I remember when I had him, there was always a problem with feeding, and he needs calm neighbors, otherwise, everyone will take his food.

Ronald5720

I feed him with tweezers for now.

Daniel9952

My lives with a zebrasoma and a japonicus, eats frozen artemia. Moreover, it is the first to pounce on it. Does not like strong currents. photo:

And how he gets along with soft corals, feather worms, and other inhabitants of the aquarium...

Erica752

Has anyone kept unicorns (monooxyacanthurus)?

Courtney4094

I don't have any feather worms, so I don't know. In other respects, it is completely harmless. The only BUT is that when frightened, they release a strong toxin.

Rodney

Yeah, if it releases, it will poison the whole aquarium!

Mitchell3177

I get along with the feather worm. The sea cucumber doesn't get along with it and bites it.

Karen1649

Holothuria is poisonous. It can release venom from bites. And everything will die. And Lactoria will eventually bite it. Be careful.

Tammy

How is the little body doing now? What new and interesting things can be added about it?

Phillip9722

I can share my sad experience of keeping. As I mentioned, the cornutus killed the holothurian, the holothurian died, and everything was poisoned along with the little one. I was in mourning, and after that, I decided for myself that I would have nothing toxic in my aquarium!

Matthew7977

And I put an eel in this aquarium.))

I recently got an Ostracion cubicus. On the first day, I went into the reef and stayed there for a day. Then I started to come out, trying to feed it with a pipette, but it takes the food sluggishly, which is causing me to overfeed the aquarium. I tried giving it brine shrimp, but it just watches as it swims away. What else can I offer it? And how many times a day should I feed it? Its size is about 8 centimeters.

Lori4746

offer small red spools.

Allison

Freshwater ones, I guess? I haven't seen any like that in the sea... Some do come out at night, of course...

Stuart

What is there to be surprised about? In nature, mollusks are their favorite dish. If you have the book by Savchuk "Reef Aquarium," read carefully about the body. To avoid getting caught with it.

Angela7060

Everyone says that he will poison in case of fright, but I haven't read anywhere that this has happened to anyone!

Alyssa6727

Once, in a transport can, a little body just one and a half centimeters long took all living things in twenty minutes, including itself. Perhaps in a large aquarium with coal and foam, the little body won't cause any trouble, but it definitely has "potential"!

Brandy

There is about Kuzovka from Konstantin Morshnev.

Tanya

Damn, now I’ll be looking for snails, as far as I’m concerned, he’s not a survivor with such an appetite, that’s what it means to be a "fish on wheels" (the supplier is not to blame here, it’s his own fault).

Elijah7048

It's fresh in my memory when Arotron, having settled down to die, almost poisoned all the fish in the aquarium. We managed to remove the fish in time, but 2 of them still ended up dying.

Gregory

In short, there is good news... Kuzovok has started eating Artemia and especially flakes of dry food, not even looking at the bloodworms, which is a plus... I collected snails yesterday from a kind girl, didn't even look their way... and it's unclear how he can eat them with his round lips.

Thomas1044

I have a little body that mainly stays near the surface, not afraid of the pump and doesn't get sucked in (5000 sansan + 15000 resun)... likes to peck at something on the surface, only chases after large pieces of artemia and flakes, enjoys eating from tweezers... but overall it's somewhat dull and not as beautiful as I imagined, the color is dirty yellow (there was an almost white option available) - I read that these are practically adult specimens... Here is my "Lobanov" from Interns, silly but beloved:

Matthew1280

Everyone in the household has come to love Kuzovok more than the others, as he actually swims up to the glass when he sees people and wags his tail... they feed him with tweezers, he is really tame...

Andrea8397

In marine aquaristics, there are many various creatures that you inevitably come to respect and feel attached to, thanks to their unique behavior and appearance. Freshwater aquariums clearly lose out in this regard. Just one anglerfish is worth it...

Tricia7885

Here I disagree with you - regarding external appearance, marine inhabitants certainly surpass their freshwater counterparts, but when it comes to the uniqueness of behavior, I must disagree. I had three otocinclus, and they are much more intelligent and interesting in their behavior than the same helmonas.

Larry9400

To make such conclusions, one needs to keep a huge number of marine and freshwater fish. Comparing the behavior of fish based on a small experience is somewhat incorrect.

Cynthia6578

Why did you decide that I have little experience? Of course, I can't compare to Anatoly, but I've had a marine aquarium since 2005. And I've been keeping freshwater fish for about 7 years...

Jessica

Not a fact. Read paragraph 27 more carefully. It may become clearer what is what... P.S. There may be freshwater anglers, flying fish, octopuses, soft and hermatypic corals, sea urchins... then it's a different matter...

Cheyenne2747

There is no need to exaggerate :-) I just want to say that some bland fish are also interesting in terms of their behavior and habits.

Wesley

They are interesting... However, comparing them to marine ones is hard to even put into words... Where have you seen such symbiosis, mimicry, commensalism, and diversity of forms in a freshwater aquarium? Just one cloth-like goby is one of the brightest confirmations of this, not to mention the countless marine inhabitants that take your breath away when you look at them... This is why many aquarists switch from freshwater to saltwater... otherwise, they would quietly be dealing with astronotus, discus, etc., but no - the sea has drawn them in. Although the mentioned fish are, of course, very, very...

Aaron6112

yeah..............that's for sure

Ronald5720

Off-topic. You must have really gotten lost in the sea, considering you recently set up a big sea? That's right. I, too, at one time completely closed all questions regarding freshwater, even though I dedicated many years to it. And now I will work with the sea until the sand-aragonite starts pouring out of my... well, you know.

Julia

I decided because of the topic about Zankla.

Amanda

By the way, the Kyzovok turned out to be omnivorous, eats almost everything (just doesn't catch pellets), also eats nori on a magnet, and is the first to go for artemia... in general, it's an ordinary fish... just not afraid of people...

Angel628

Oh, I love swimming with the little boats!!

Andrew7823

It's been over a month since Kuzovok has been living with me, and during this time there was a global catastrophe that caused a power outage, resulting in the aquarium being covered in slime... the chemicals I started pouring in only worsened the situation... the slime clogged all the pumps and drains, and several corals died... meanwhile, Kuzov remained completely unperturbed, eating everything—even the tablets for catfish... so I conclude that a fish is just a fish, it doesn't need any special conditions... much more finicky is Helmon, who still won't eat artemia...
