Hello, purchased one of these about a month ago. Put him in a QT and observed for a few weeks. I normally treat prophyllatically but decided not to with this fish as it seemed really healthy. He was eating 3-4 times a day from day one,mysis and brineshrimp and ate pretty much as much as i gave him. He has now been in the big display tank for about a week and doesnt bother at all with any of the food i put in. He sometimes swims in amongst the other fish at feeding times and doesnt seem bothered by them at all,even the triggers! He picks about at the rockwork and sand all the time so i guess that he is getting food but is he likely to get enough like that? There are plenty of aiptasia in the tank bit he doesnt seem interested in them even though i fed him a couple in QT and he ate them. Any advise is much appreciated,thanks

I recently got a CBB too and I have had great success feeding masstick that i buy from bulk reef, I would look into it, there are many videos of it on youtube.
