Default Anyone ever had a mattedfilefish eat ricordea?

I know they eat aiptasia and majanos, which is awesome. I know they also eat zoanthids. How do I know this, I used to have zoos, now I have none. Ok, I have about 4 left out of the hundred or so I used to have. Also apparently the pretty ones taste better as the brown ones went untouched and I had to manually remove them as they were starting to encroach on some corals I'd rather not have encroached. Would have been a lot handier had the filefish just ate them.

Anyhoo, returning from the frag swap tonight I see a ratty looking little ricordea on its own. Not sure if its been nibbled on or what and the filefish sure ain't gonna nibble on it while I'm looking (I've caught him at the zoos). If anyone has any record of them eating ricordea he's taking a trip to the store.
