[RedDragon]

what are you feeding your clowns, and have you tryed useing brine shrimp or a vegie clip shaped like a clown

[REEFAHOLIC]

The other members may disagree, but I find the best way to insill a feeding response is find some life brine shrimp, most fish can't refuse this. Then slowly try to feed frozen. This has worked for me with fish that are finicky.

you didn't mention if they were captive bred or not. make sure you get c.b. ones and you shouldn't have anymore die they're usually just as hardy as damsels and eat everything in sight. wild caught ones easily come down with disease or just waste away, there are some exceptions though.

I've had lots of luck getting finicky fish to eat if I use garlic extract...I use kent's garlic extreme a few times a week...I always use zoe,zoecon and vitamin c drops. From what I understand garlic is really healthy for them as well as a natural attractant.
