i have seen this but i am wondering if they were either A. Killed or B. if they are hiding cause they are spawning

 

[Troubleman]

Do they eat prepared foods, or only eat what the scavenge in the tank? Mine only picked thru the sand and eventually ran out of food and passed on.

I tried one.
Like Troubleman reported, mine never took any prepared food and eventually starved. I'll not buy another.

 

[x22hockey]

ya they ate only the food on the sand, did either of u two see them pass

 

[x22hockey]

help moe k or trouble man

 

[Moe_K]

"see them pass"
I don't understand the question.

 

[x22hockey]

when they died did u see them in ur tank like floating or at the bottom, because i saw one this morning and know i see none

 

[JCheung]

he means did you see their corpses, or did they just dissappear.

[JCheung]

Just disappeared.
The other critters in the tank ate the corpse, I presume.

i bought one of these roughly 3 weeks ago and find him to be the coolest little fish. No problem with him eating and being highly visable in the tank. So I guess you can keep these in pair or schools? didnt know that. Im going to have to pick up another one from SC next week.

 

[x22hockey]

Stevedola make sure u buy a bigger one then the one u have my friend tried recently with buying a smaller one and the rainsford actually got aggressive, and they dissapered and now they are all over the tank. Hey guys if u can look at some of my shots in the photo section i want some help with maby selling my platecoral i think it is getting tooooo big for my tank

 

[x22hockey]

also if i they are gonna lay eggs its gonna suck cause i have to break down my tank in 3 weeks to move back to school (aug 2)

I tried one or two over the years, but also had problems with getting to eat. Never lived long.
