I have had one now for about two weeks in my reef tank and he doesn't eat any of my aiptasia but has a liking for xenia which is fine with me as I have way too much.

I find they usually take 2-3 weeks before you notice any aiptasia missing.

Damn.

Found mine dead this afternoon. Got it Mar30 so don't think how I acclimatized (cupful not drip), didn't see eating aiptasia but was picking off the rock and didn't look thin, no one was hassling him.

Any ideas before I go looking for another?

Possibly caught with cyanide? Have had fish before that did great for a few weeks then boom gone even hardier fish.
