Current copy of Coral Magazine has an enlighting article on the captive keeping of these fish. I'd pick up a copy.

An outstanding fish, however they do eat SPS polyps. They generally graze SPS and do not eat the polyps one coral at a time or anything like that...they or may not accept prepared foods. You would need a LARGE population of SPS to keep both the fish and the corals happy. Plan on them nipping at any corals and clams you have...should you decide one is right for you and then change your mind, they area easy to remove as they do not fear us, just scoop them out.

you just have to feed them alot, basicaly they eat constantly like a rabbit and the food passes thru them fast so they dont absorb all the nutrients small digestive system so 6 portions daily keep them in good health auto feeder recommended i use NLS .5mm pellets all he eats and is healthy 2 months now heres a video of mine http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBjr1QTuvp8
