Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
I'm here reading you all my friend, I was in the tank looking at the foxface that I managed to get him to eat just, he ate at the store yesterday but hadn't eaten since he was here, he is also quite shy, as soon as he sees me approaching the tank he hides, I also cooked the hamburgers and the argentinian chorizos

That looks delicious! What did you try feeding him?
 
Just look at this beautiful coral! I had never heard of that kind before.

Rough Rough Rough day and this was just what I needed!

They are very very shy Luis.
Do not worry my friend he will eat when ready.
Almost strictly algae eater.
Throw some broccoli or tie some fresh spinach to a rock.
He'll eat at night too.
They take awhile to get comfortable.
 
Im spending my Sunday night jousting a cleaner shrimp with a extra long pipette....
Luckily for mine I know he doesn't kill fish because when I saw him eating the leopard my first thought was to take him out and torture him lol

Mine loves frozen mysis shrimp. You could also try soaking something in a little garlic it increases their appetite so that might get him eating more.
