Great fish. Calvus are one of my personal Favorites Second only to my Frontosas. Mine are also on brine shrimp at the moment. Point of advise on feeding brine shrimp, monitor how much gets sucked up into your filter, especially if your feeding live brine. In either case, it may behoove you to turn off the filter for a few minutes during feeding. If too much gets sucked up into the filter, it's a real waste. Plus dead brine shrimp can really muck up a filter. Best of luck with them.
I was only feeding sprulina cause I was waiting for my food to freeze. Droped a piece of a mixed cube (brine, mysis and fresh shrimp) I made. They picked at it slowly but none was wasted. I also found 2 albino brichardi to grow with them. hopefully I can get a decent pic this weekend when I have time for them to swim up front.
Yep, had to do it, Just went out and got two more white Calvus and two yellow Compressiceps for myself.
