    Very nice.

    Have you determined your plan yet for when your imperator outgrows your tank?

    Thanks everyone, as for the angel by the time he out grows i should have already upgraded to a 100+ gal tank (the 55 seems really skinny i should have started with a 75 allittle thicker, but there both 4 ft so i know right now he has alot of swim room). So far he seems extremely happy and eats alot, i feed him and the other fish: mysis shrimp, brine with spirlulina a krill all frozen soaked in garlic guard and zoe twice a day, oh and formula 2 pellets

    Sounds great.

    It would be a good idea to occasionally add some sponge to his diet. If that is inconvenient, supplement with a food that includes sponge. Ocean Nutrition There's other brands but that's the one that comes to mind.

    You can target feed the hammer with frozen brine or frozen mysis. You can use a turkey baster but I find the eyedroppers for giving babies medicine to be easier to use. The xenia won't target feed.
