    Got him acclimated this morning. He sat in the same spot all day until I dropped a ghost shrimp in. he slowly walked across the tank after the ghost shrimp. took him a couple of tries but he ate it!

    Pictures to come

    Thanks! I thought he was going to be yellow with red blotches, but nay, he is white with brownish reddish blotches. Still pretty cool. I like him. My wife wishes there was something moving around in the tank to look at. lol. today I was able to feed him from a net. Once I get to the point where he recognizes the net as feeding time, and begins to walk towards it when it enters the water, I will try to wean him to frozen foods. Right now, as small and new as he is, my main priority is getting him fattened up a bit on ghost shrimp until he is well acclimated to my tank, and myself.
