Please help with Brownbird Wrasse
I received a large brownbird 3 days ago. I put her into a 20 gal QT with PVC pipe and an airstone. Although the acclimation went well, she lies on the bare bottom most of the time and will not eat mysis, brine shrimp, shrimp, or flakes. She is not breathing hard and will swim around rarely. Any suggestions on how I can get acclimated to the QT and get her eating? Thanks.

Try some live grass/glass shrimp.

Thanks. I hate to ask this, but where can I get them? I have no LFS within 2 hours of here. Would Walmart or Petsmart carry them?

Large chain type places don't tend to carry them. You'll probably have to get them online from someplace like Live Aquaria (aka Drs. Foster and Smith).
