Well if they are slowly dieing it sure taking long enough. They have been like this for the last 2 month and I have had then for about 6 month.

I have seen them in other tanks as well, in which they were there for years. I have heard and read all about there track record and beginning to agree that they should be left in the ocean but the are so nice.

This is a strange, I was just reading the exact same article. Do you target feed yours? Got a pic?

Grizz don't get excited.
The article was written over five years ago by a guy that works at a fish store called feathers and fins.

Tried to find the article on using a green phytoplankton tank but can't find it yet.
