    Hi guys. I picked up a citron goby the other day and he is not eating. It's only been 2 days but I'm a little concerned, since he just sits there all day. It doesn't even make an effort when its feeding time. I use mysis shrimp and Hikari S pellets. Any advice, or should I give it a few more days? Thanks!

    Try feeding them Garlic to get fish to eat. And they will start to eat soon

    It may take a few more days for him to settle in and get comfortable. I wouldn't be worried yet. And the garlic suggestion above is a good idea.
