Not to put the cart before the horse here, but I saved this thing from one of the big petstore names about a week ago during a blizzard. Less than a week later and the thing is tearing apart 3 seaweed sheets from a clip, eating flake food from my hand, and mysis shrimp a day. The store that had him had only gotten him the day before. Only issue I have is it's chasing my Leopard Wrasse all over the place.

Glad you saved him/her
 
I just went through the same with my PBT. I added to Wrasses and he was all over them. I put a mirror up and that kept him busy with the new Tang in the tank. I guess he got used to seeing the two wrasses swim around him because after 48 hours I took it down and now he’s swimming peacefully with the wrasses.
