Hello everyone, I picked up a camel cowfish from my LFS two days ago and it has not eaten since. I have tried feeding it Freeze Dried Brine Shrimp, Mysis Shrimp, Freeze Dried Plankton, and flakes. I noticed that it tends to be unbalanced in the water column, with one side being slightly higher than the other. Sometimes, however, it is completely level. It is currently in the refugium of my display tank.

If anyone has any insight as to what this could be, any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Thanks for that! Just realized I had LRS Feeding Frenzy and Nutramar Ova in my freezer. Put both of them in, but the cowfish didn't seem to go for any of them. I think the Nutramar was too small. Will try again tomorrow though.
