He's a pretty bold sub-adult. Definitely my favorite fish as well as others who've come to visit. I never fed him any veggies or nori while he's in the QT for a month where he'd eat anything( flakes, pellets, and frozen). Once in the DT he quickly learned to eat Yu Choy( a Chinese veggie) from the 2 veggie clips. When I'm putting the leaves on he gets excited and would come as close to me as possible, while all the tangs( Yellow, Hippo, and Powder Blue) and dwarf angels would stay at a distance.
Once the veggie clips are in place, he'd "station" himself like eating at a table, tearing off big chunks, while the tangs would only come and take small bites and then swim off. Before I introduced him the 2 leaves of Yu Choy would last for a few hours but now gone in 10 minutes! I estimated he eats 5 times more than all my tangs "combined"! He's been like that for 2 weeks. Wonder if he'll be the same when he becomes an adult............
