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.

They like the purple nori better. Might have to go and visit the unspeakable aquarium store on the island....
