Free young copperband

[Generalstarpolyp]

Got it from AC 10 days ago and it’s not eating any thing I’ve offered it(live brine,frozen brine, mysis, bloodworms, LRS, frozen clams, ROE) Head is starting to pinch but still super active and picking at my microfauna. But it’s not enough. Located in Fremont off Thornton 880 exit. Free to a more experienced home.

Better than to let it perish live and Learn

I did a writeup on how I got my copperband to eat on another forum. It took a couple weeks but he finally started eating like a "normal" fish. Mabe its helpful

How I Got my Copperband Butterfly to Eat

Background: I had a rad Copperband for a few months. He ate like a pig, was super personable etc - but, unfortunately, he got a bacterial infection while I was out of town and by the time I got back and tried to help him it was too late. So - I got a rebound Copperband from Marine Collectors...

They need to eat often like anthias. I’ve had luck with black, blood worms - brineshrimp- frozen foods- pellets. In that order.

Any local source for black worms? That is the 1 thing I have not tried yet
