Yea everyone local said they are almost impossible to keep alive.Big convict fan as well. Not an easy fish to get to a sustainably healthy weight.
Mine is a pig and I feed 3-4 times a day at a 2+ cube amount per. It never stops picking at the rocks.Yeah, you don’t ever see a plump convict at retail and almost never in folks tanks. I’ve had a small one for about a year and it’s been a real battle. It eats almost non stop but remains on the thin side .... though not as thin.
Love zebra tangsNot my favorite necessarily, but the most unusual one I have (now that gems are common as dirt) .....

My convict was the last addition. Its also the pita. He bullys my yellow tang. I have 9 acanthurus tangs but only the 1 zebrasoma. At 5inch long, he is at least 3/4 inch thick.Yea everyone local said they are almost impossible to keep alive.
Thats why I got one lol!
It was eating and very skinny when I got it.
Skinny and right now.![]()

You are absolutely correct. Gorgeous fish. When I lived in Kona Hawaii I used to see guys pulling these out of the ocean on fishing line all the time. If they weren't so dang big I would have asked to take one for my tankI love Lavender tangs. I know a lot of people think they are just another grey/brown fish, but they really are very attractive. Great algae eaters with out the attitude some of the others have.
*stolen off google, don't have any pics of my old one. *

Very cool. The good thing about these is that they are caught at a relative small size, most common size i see is around the 3in mark and they tend to be a slow grower.You are absolutely correct.
