Moorish Idol Problems

I don't think so, he's been like this for a year. Mostly happy, grazing around. His current tank is beside the kitchen table and I get to sit and watch him while I work, and he's fine. But if he sees me moving and potentially getting food, he lights up. Almost smiles.

A good problem to have I suppose..i have a couple fish that will bite me when they are hungry.

Ya, but let's not forget, they're still finicky fish. Can do well for a year, 2, then bam, die overnight. This guy has been around for a year now, hopefully he's with me many more.

Absolutely.. Imo I'll try once. But if it's demise was out of my control I won't chance again

Honestly, I probably wouldn't even try if I hadn't known this fish for a year. It came from the display at my LFS when it shut down. It's like an Achilles, beautiful fish, but most of them die sooner than later. I wouldn't buy one unless it came from an established tank.
