    UPDATE:

    Mr. Sabea is doing great. His colors are perfect, his attitude is perfect and he has settled in right in the front of my tank. I'm Loving it!

    Keep your fingers crossed.

    Oh, I did get rid of my Clarkie (Traded him in) and found a small Maroon. He is hosting beautiful and is not aggressive towards the other tank inhabitants.

    I am feeding him. Although some of the elders say It is not necessary.

    I give him a Silverside about once a week. He also is eats Mysis shrimp when they stick to him.

    Yea I would say to keep up with your current feeding regimen and that will supplement any nutrients it might not be getting from your lights.
