I got lucky. Mine ate aptasia shortly after I first got it and then a month or so after that it ate PE mysis (soaked in garlic/selicon) it also picked on clams I think half the problem with these fish is that most wont eat and most are cyanide caught. I'm looking at getting a matted filefish to keep my aptasia problem under control, it's making a come back now that my CBB is dead. Here's hoping the filefish will eat aptasia and not sps
