I've wanted to get a pair of leopards but everytime I ask the LFS to feed them, they never eat so I get nervous and walk away. Went back a few days ago and they were still there so I said I'll take the chance on them and see how it goes. I put them in and they vanished until today! Once I saw them out and about, I threw my usual mix of food and at first they didn't seem interested and I started to worry but then the smaller of the 2 started to nibble at the larger pieces of mysis. Then it started to eat everything that floated by. The larger one still didn't seem to want to eat but finally a large piece of mysis went by and it took a bite! I couldn't believe it, the first day of feeding and they are eating frozen.

Here is a crappy, out of focus, pic of them.

I'm not fond of sixline's, they're a**es. I love my black leopard. He's now my new baby foxface's best friend.

yeah way to aggressive when they get big beautiful fish though, well it looks like my leopard survived the hazing because the 2 of them are actually able to stand each other in the same areas right now. i am removing the sixline when ever i can though.blacky is hunting and has eaten for me so im happy

now i want more wrasses :P
