Merry Christmas!

well i was on the 13th page of this thread so i didnt see that, well i have no sps left alive for some time my tank can never support sps i just keep buying them and my filefish thrives of nls pellets, we all are used to eating a staple diet when we were children but hey we adapt and eat other foods now am i right? Key to sucess is water parameters and no stress to this fish so that it can try new foods and be happy
