I will have had mine for two years as of July. A lot of naturally occurring food was necessary for it to survive and settle in. In the first month it ate all of the fan worms and spaghetti worms. In the second and third month it took care of the aptasia. Into the fourth month it began eating frozen mysis shrimp and grocery store clam. In the months that followed it has noticeably took up eating bristle worms and pods too. Unfortunately it is also like zoaelite's and will chow on acans, trachyphyllia, lobophyllia and gorgonia polyps. Fortunately my MTS (multiple tank syndrome) allowed me to save them by moving them to another tank.
