New Square Anthias

[t4stock]

Hi... I just added a beautiful Square Anthias to my tank. Neither my Sohol nor my yellow Tang are bothering him. My Damsels are leaving him alone as well. The Anthias shows no signs of heavy breathing, etc... wiht the exception of a mouth cut, he seems fine... moving around tank, etc...
Now of coure, the issue becomes feeding... I was hoping to jup him straight to frozen brine, etc... but I know live food may have to be used to begin.
Can anyone offer advice on their feeding techniques, etc., for their Anthius?
Thanks,
Todd

I had mine quarantined for a couple weeks first and weened them over in the otehr tank. In the mean time i slowly added frozen mysis to the live brine and then took to it. one of the three never switched over and is now dead. make sur eyou are supplementing them with zoe. it'll keep their health up if they get finicky.

Happily, there are NO probs with the other fish... the Anthias hangs out in the open all the time, and the other fish never bother him.... he looks like he'll eat too... so I'll try mixing live with frozen and criss my fingers.... when you say give him plenty of zoe... you mean what exactly?
