    have you tried some enticement like garlic or selcon? I remember a similar post to this and I think it was Corailline that said she has had clowns do this without loss....clowns are so interesting yet so unpredictable - I guess that's why we tend to like them so much :)

    They will eat when they are hungry. Be patient.

    After a week I would start getting worried as well, can you post a picture of him? See what his belly looks like.
