I saw it last week and it has grown about 3 inches since then. It is a monster. Don't get rid of it until my fish from hell (neon damsel comes over to visit) :lol

I had the same problem with a green carpet. It became too large and began walking my tank eating my fish and coral. I ended up giving it away.

well once a week or so i feed it about 2-3 cubes of blood worms. in hopes it wont wonder and eat. if it would eat the cheap fish that would be AWSEOME but no it eats things like my bluejaw triger, powder blue, red scooter blenny, orange linkia, and a couple others. so i figure i over feed it then it may leave my fish alone. so far since i been feeding it reguarly it hasnt ate more fish.

Its a fish eater, so try feeding it fish. Make sense? I would suggest feeding it 2-3 times a week.
