I think that having them from Hawaii is definetly a plus, especially if they're fat and sassy to begin with. The last idol I had was just over a year old, I ended up moving and lost in the move. Never tried one since but I never had much problems to begin with, it ate from day one.
At any rate, good luck, third times a charm I've heard.

Kept one back in the mid-80s (yeah, feeling old) in a 108g FO tank with no live rock (what was that?) and no skimmer (same question). It ate everything I fed to my other fish, including pieces of shrimp, squid & smelts. Had it for almost a year until I sold it when I shut down that tank. Since the age of the Internet, I now have learned how hard these are to keep alive in captivity. Maybe ignorance is bliss after all.

2 week anniversary. The little guy stopped eating well for a couple days, but seems to have his appetite back again. Still a bit thin, but eating well. Big guy eats everything, but still looks a bit frazzled in the tank. Concerned with re-homing tho, as I'm not sure I know anyone that I trust can keep him alive.
I hope in time it subsides, but for now, I realize I can't enjoy these fish, I'm always worried about waking up or coming home to dead fish! I suppose with more time that will pass, but for now, I'm still anxious getting home from work. I'll try and dig out the camera for an updated shot later tonight.
