    Thanks! He is in a 200 gallon tank. So far so good he is eating and seems to be doing well.

    Any updates on the fish? Has he ate any inverts?

    No, I threw in a clean up crew after I put him in and he has not touched them at all. Great fish! He has quickly become my favorite fish in the tank. I do make sure I keep him well fed. From what I've read, if they are not well fed that's when they go after inverts.
