Sargassum and Foxface

[rinoNJ]

Hey guys,

I bought a Sargassum this past weekend and it went well for about 5 minutes. Then my magnificent foxface started picking on it.

i got the foxface out at night and put him in the sump / fuge. But i can't get the Sargassum to come out and i am worried that he won't eat and will die. I moved the rocks and got him out for 30 seconds and then he went and hid again.

any suggestions?

Thanks!

Rino

Sell the foxface

Your talking about a Sargassum trigger right? Did he eat at the store, if he did he will probably be fine, its an ocean trigger and putting in our tanks will stress it. Fish can go along time without eating

Yes -correct, sargassum trigger.

I'll give it time and watch him and hopefully he will come out soon.

Thanks,
