I got the new royal gramma about a year ago, before the upgrade. He has always just stayed in his cave and just dart out at feeding time. Over the last week he has been out and about during the day adding his splash of color to the tank. Wasn’t sure it would ever happen.

Nice! Mine has quickly gotten pretty comfy. He/She has a cave tunnel for themselves but after just a few days started being pretty confident.

I saw Barney as I was scrolling up the page, and om so glad to see it was you who posted it 🤣

That's great Kevin, thank you guys for the info. I found that I had some hikari seaweed pellets on hand. They're small, so I dropped them on a rock near him and he ate all of them! This'll keep him fed until I get the larger pellets!

Got home, had left over Maki for breakfast, started watching some anime. Dozed off. Padded off to BR. Rinse and repeat a few times. Got on laptop played a chunk of Civ V. Now catching up on the smorgs.
