I just bought a geometric Pygmy hawkfish a few days ago and i don't think he has been eating since I got him. I read that they can be hard to feed I feed the tank Lrs and brine shrimp. Any suggestion on getting them to eat?
 
Flying fish eggs in the water current, usually labeled as tobiko in asian food stores. Having an established tank helps as there are instances where I have seen them live a few years in a tank, but never saw them take frozen or other prepared foods.
 
Its worth a try.
