Recommended Posts

Hi fellow reefers,

recently got a multi banded pipefish from CF, gorgeous looking little creature. I love it !

Problem is, it not eating anything, i've tried hikari frozen mysis and henry's food but it still doesn't respond to them.

Can someone please tell me what should i feed it !?

From liveaquaria.com

The Banded Pipefish is difficult to keep due to its unusual feeding requirements. It normally prefers to eat only live copepods in a mature reef aquarium with plenty of live rock or macroalgae. An ideal diet to start this fish on is Nutramar Tigrio Bottled Live Copepods, and vitamin-enriched live baby brine shrimp. However, live baby brine should not make up the majority of its diet. Over time, the Banded Pipefish may become accustomed to eating frozen CYCLOP-EEZE®, small Mysis, and Nutramar Ova.

Looking for the best food to feed your Pipefish? We recommend AlgaGen Tisbe biminiensis.

Not sure, where to buy them in Singapore. Maybe someone can help.
