    I've always wanted one, finally took the chance and got one! Freaked out for almost a week. couldnt get her to touch anything prepared. Which if course I knew was going to be a challenge. But Now she eats :) And Like a cow! She loves Mysis and Cyclopeeze :)

    Sorry the Tank is a bit dirty atm. Bouncing back from a crash. Hopefully within the next few months I will be filling it back up with corals now that I seem to have some stable healthy fish :). Enjoy the Video ( you might have to click on the image to be directed to the video)

    Thanks again everyone. The last couple days she has been expanding her pallet into prepared food. Yesterday and today she enjoyed some flakes :)

    Thanks! She wasn't to much of a challenge just a ton of paranoia. Just kept offering my mixture of brine, mysis and cyclopeeze and vitamins! in small feedings 4x a day! Im glad I got main feedings down to 3 times a day now. That is quite manageable. She is kinda getting a tummy now :)
