if anyone in Calgary wants to have a go with one of these fish, there's 2 at Oceans right now - $27.99

sounds like a deal.

That seems like a good deal...but the food can be expensive!

Is this fish still doing OK? No problem sustaining his needs so far? Does he tend to eat from any particular part of the corals (growth tips?, base?) Does he eat a large spot from a coral or just a polyp here and there? Any shots of coral that have been snacked upon?

Fish is doing really good so far, he prefers acropora to other types of sps and only eats the polyps but from all parts of the coral. Corals are not showing any sign of stress but they definitely have less polyps or show less extension.

I also saw a tiny one at Big Als.

Does the fish seem to eat anything else besides the corals?? Any kinds of food interest it?

Nah not really any interest in other food. I've read of others having success with frozen food but it's extremely rare.

I had one of these guys and he ate more hair algea and sand than SPS, also took pellets and frozen angle food I smeared into a rock, I thought it was a female and tried to pair it up with a male but he killed the first one then ate nothing and died, but if i see a healthy one iam going to try again, great fish for sure

How is this fish doing? Is he still eating SPS polyps exclusively? How are the SPS doing?
