Drew Is it pooping maybe? I have been feeding mine every other day or so. I just purchased some organic tiger prawns from Safeway and cut a chunk off the size of there mouths and then soak it in selcon for the afternoon in the fridge and give it to them just before lights out.
after talking with Tony i may ramp up the feeding on the Yellow one to daily untill i see an improvement with his stuby tentacles.Maybe your guy is just trully hungry.

Yeah...mine has seemed quite happy on the bottom! Until during the night sometime last night. Also, as I left for work, I think it was on the move again. Not sure....definitely makes me nervous.

And I think you may be right--I probably need to feed more. I'll try the shrimp!

It moved around a bit in the last week or so, and appeared to have lost some biomass. It was eating, however. I went away for 4 days, and when I came back, it was definitely dead. Fish sitter reported it alive and kicking as late as July 31.
