Well these guys finally came in about 3 weeks ago. It was good timing 'cause it coincided with the move of my Reef tank so I was able to isolate my PB Tang in the sump easily. I purchased two but these are actually Tasseled Filefish #'s 3 & 4. The first two didn't make it
. One thing I didn't think about when researching these guys is flow. Turns out my water circulation was too strong for these fellows due to there small size. They got stressed out. With the second two, I shut off the two main powerheads for the first three days or so, and then began slowly cranking them back up. These guys are doing fine and are almost twice the size when I first got them. They are always front and centre looking for food when I'm nearby.
I'm not sure if they are eating Aiptasia or not. I know they are not eating the big ones but I have seen them peck at the rocks so they might be eating small ones. If they can keep my Aiptasia problem from at least getting any worse than it already is, I'll be happy. But they are a cool fish all the same and they are growing fast! They love Mysis and I've manage to get them to take Formulas One & Two pellets also.
