One of my EBJDs is not eating. He just sits on the bottom of the tank :( I got some stuff to try and treat him, but can't for the life of me catch him. Is there a trick to catching stubborn fish? And no one else in the tank is acting ill, they all have huge appetites and swim around chasing each other.

turn the lights out for about 30 mins then turn them on and scoop him up before he comes too

Yup a sleeping fish is easiest to catch!

Hey never thought of that. Thanks tons!! :)

What medication did you get? General cure is probably your best bet if it is an internal bug.

Yes I got general cure. I still can't catch him to treat him though :( Will have to try again tonight when the sun goes down as there is to much light in the room even with the lights off lol

wait about an hour after dark. put the net in and then come back and turn the lights on, you will have about 15 minutes to get him before he fully wakes up.

I went out and bought a 10" net and used my little one as a coral-er and he went right in the big net easy. Needless to say I finally caught him. Got him in his temp bucket and am treating him..I hope he makes it

Well I've had him on meds for 2 days now and he still won't eat. I tried giving him a blood worm and nothing. Any advise on what I should do with him?

How long has it been since he last ate?

Almost a week I think

How big is he?
