I wanted to get one of those but last time I went to the store I saw them in they were gone. They are certainly very cute and pretty hope yours will do well.

I have two of them in my 230 gallon SPS mixed reef tank. They don't like the light too much as they stay under the ledges of the rock but will come out in the open as soon as the halides shut off. I have seen them eat frozen cyclop-eeze. but thats about it. I assume they are feeding off of pods mostly. Just recently I noticed that the male was carrying eggs under his belly which is very cool! Wonder how hard it would be to raise the babies, probaly not an easy task.

I've had him for about a week now and he's doing great there is no longer a bubble under his head, and he's fatter then when I first got him He loves his cheato home in our `fuge, there's lots of pods and live baby mysis for him to eat in there, so far it seems to be the perfect place for him.
