u should try soaking the food in garlic juice, or u can try feeding it frozen mysis, or cyclop-eeze, some of fish favorite foods. it has to be eating something, 6 weeks is a long time without food.

Seriously?!?!? You have a conspicuatus?!?!? I've never seen one under $1,500!!!

Do you have pics of this bad boy?

These guys normally graze on sponges and tunicates in the wild. If it's been 6 weeks he's got to be eating something...or he would be dead by now. Do you keep inverts?

What are the tank specs? Any other inhabitants?
 
I have a funny feeling that this is a bogus thread...considering this was the first and only post and still no pics.

:bs:

I agree, I also think its a bogus thread. Has anyone else kept one of these Angels before? I wish I had one!

Definitely a beautiful angel. I would love to keep one, but they are a little $teep for me. :D
 
i have been gone forever i will put up a pic of the conspic for nonbelievers. i would think the thread was fake as well. my emeperor angel harrased it it stopped eating and died on me...i got it to eat live black worms to start and it worked if anyone has issues starting that fish to feed.

You let an Emperor kill a $2,000+ fish!?! You shoulda pulled the Emperor!!!
