Its some kind of filefish and it feeds on corralites,so dun buy tis unless u can provide it with the suitable food

[woonming]

It feeds on SPS

But you can train them to feed on BBS

Try to get a fake rubber sps for training too

This fish may look nice but almost no one can provide it with a stable source of food. Yes, it feeds on SPS but so far I've only heard a case whereby they are successfully kept by a foreign expert reefer

You can buy BBS from most LFS, else you can also buy the eggs and hatch them yourself.

You might want to try cyclopezee, they are abt the same size as BBS.

Opps haha... Ok frm personal experience with this fish, i managed to keep 2 for abt a yr feeding on prawn meat. This was many moons ago b4 all the sophiscated research n reefing techniques were known. Now I wudnt recommend the fish but since u hv already bgt, maybe u can try. Maybe its luck but as its a true personal experience, if no choice then try it lah. Gd luck with the fish.

This fish consider to be very hard to keep in the aquarium, because it need special feeding of Acropora Sp. This fish call Oxymonacanthus longirostris or Orange Spotted Filefish.
