and viet-tin has it right one :happyfish theywere once considered very easy to keep, but now that everyone is so finiky about their reef with low nutrients, most of them do not survive with out proper feedings. deep sand beds, and improper filtration used to provide these animals with a lot of natural foods. But now with protein skimmers, and oversized sumps and such, they do not find the food they need form the home aquarium. which is why they die. but if fed the proper sized food often, they can do great. a coral farmer in my reef club named Justin has been aquaculturing these for years. he did a presentation testing all different foods anywhere from seabass blood to pepermint shrimp eggs. The size of the peperming shrimp eggs seemed to have the best effect. oyster eggs also would work great, but can be expensive. and to my knowledge no one sells pep. shrimp eggs. other zoo plankton foods will also work however like cyclops eeze as viet tin has mentioned
