Love these guys, Although they are quite unusual. When they swim, it's like a bumble bee. Just one out of the group has tried leftover food. Mine prefer live food, which are Amphipods, but they seem to be slow in catching them. They seem to catch enough in the dark and shy away, into the background, when the lights come back on. They love to check out snails of all kinds. As they poke and prod them endlessly. They get angry, if there are any type of salinity change too. Great tank mate, very curious and when they decide to come out and entertaining. Provide many hiding places in the rock work for them. Mine are nice and fat, at least the females are.
