New Fish

[sphelps]

The fish has become very comfortable and ventures to all parts of the tank. He's got a ferocious apatite and is constantly looking for food. The good news is that he's not picky, eats every type of SPS coral and even likes the odd zoo skirt. No noticeable damage to coral at this point





No surprise I think millepora is his favorite.

just make sure you have garlic... and lemon..

If it eats the corals so much they can't recover, get a pan nice and hot.. add a bit of almond oil, garlic, and sear both sides, finnish in the oven and add lemon.

That seems like a good deal...but the food can be expensive!

Is this fish still doing OK? No problem sustaining his needs so far? Does he tend to eat from any particular part of the corals (growth tips?, base?) Does he eat a large spot from a coral or just a polyp here and there? Any shots of coral that have been snacked upon?

Fish is doing really good so far, he prefers acropora to other types of sps and only eats the polyps but from all parts of the coral. Corals are not showing any sign of stress but they definitely have less polyps or show less extension.

I also saw a tiny one at Big Als.

Does the fish seem to eat anything else besides the corals?? Any kinds of food interest it?
