    Been a couple days but last night I finally got my copperband to eat (mysis). It wasn't much, but it was something.

    There's a FS in Vero Bch. that has a Vlamingii as there show fish. It's in a huge tank at least 10' long. Tons of personality and very cool fish!

    Beautiful CBB. One I am not sure if I will ever try or not due to how difficult they are. I know others have had success getting them easing using worms, either black or white. Glad you got it eating mysis either way. Which tank are you going to put it in?

    So I had to part ways with my CBB. Was having a hard time feeding. It got a new home yesterday from a fellow reefer. I hope he has more success.
