Cool fish!
Side note though.. I just find it funny people buy something and have no idea what it is, which usually means they don't know the proper care either....
but still really cool fish!

Cool fish.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but top pic on the right looks like Aptaisia to me??

cool thanks

and yeaa thats an aptasia. I got rid o them all after I took that.
I wouldnt have got him but I thought it was interesting and the lfs guy said he hasnt seen them in almost a year and I didnt think 27.50 was that bad of a price either so I got him.

He also said they eat copepods and brine but I havent seen him eat yet. I tried frozen brine, live brine, frozen mysis, and frozen plankton. all with vita chem in it. I think I'm going to try bbs today. any suggestions?

Get some pods from SWF. If you don't have a fuge, they can be cultured in a 2L soda bottle or some such. You can also try Tigger Pods, but they're pricier and harder to culture 'cuz they're cold water.
It may eat brine, but they're not very nutritious.
