I really hope you have success with your new additions...I had a lot of Nay Sayers when I got my cleaner wrasse people told me I don`t have a chance in a 25 gal tank with this fish....well 6 years later still going strong. Best of luck

If you're over on RC at all do a bit of searching, I remember at least two people keeping OSFF in the long term in tanks, one reef, one not.

Awesome find though and well done on getting them to accept the pellet and cyclopeeze

Thanks!

I uploaded a video of them pecking pellets off the rocks.

Update time..

A few days ago both fish decided that Xenia was tasty, so they are no relentlessly eating it! I don't mind because I had so much in the tank. (see video) So now their bellies are super fat every day. They still haven't started eating anything other than the pellets and cyclopeeze. At least the Xenia is supplementing their diet in some fashion, no idea how nutritious it is though..

Oh and both Males still get along just fine and are doing great.
