Recommended Posts

Hi I got a new YT 2"+ is a new comer, existing got a brown tang which is 3-4 " and very aggressive. the new YT was attacked by BT till the fin are torn...

And now my problem is the YT keep hiding in a space which BT cannot attack it, but I cannot feed the YT, so anyone can advice how can I get the YT feed?

This happens to me once when I got a purple tang (old bird) and powder brown (new bird). What I did was I manage to catch the older resident and put it in a fish box, put it there for a week. Letting the new resident swim freely while the other watch. But do take note that YT are teritorial in nature and will fight with other tang species even if the others are bigger. It works for me hope you have the same luck.

but my yt is too small to fight I think.. all the while was bullied by BT. I am unable to get the BT out. I tried to use the mirror trick, hope it works.
