lmao sounds like denial...
you'll start to recognize bite marks where polyps once were
lol. i am hoping he will develop a taste for the xenia. so far, he shows no interest. i must say he is a nipper though. he goes around nipping at everything. so far, he hasnt shown the slightest interest in frozen food.
I've had mine in my 55 Gallon reef for 4 years. Everything from polyps, mushrooms, clams...e.t.c. Has never touched a thing.
When I first introduced it I fed it pretty regularly to ensure it did not develop a bad appetite... maybe it worked...
Like everyone else mentioned, good luck with him, he is very beautiful! Once they are caught nipping....once a nipper always a nipper, at least that is my experience with these heart breakers. Hopefully yours will stop once he has a taste...you never know though, they all have different personalities. Got my fingers crossed for you!
Tank is looking great bob!! Your acans got me thinking about what I could be doing with the extra space I have on my sand now that I built a frag rack with a magfloat.
