    just about anything i throw in the tank.... brine shrimp and others too, however I prefer to feed more flake foods=less mess 8) usually formula 1 and 2 flake,
    If anything just cannot go wrong, it will anyway.

    Mine love frozen Mysis, Formula I & II flakes, Prime Reef flakes - don't give them frozen brine very much - they love everything except nori. They remind me of hushpuppies! :wub

    Oh man I am loving this fish. I stopped and picked up some formula I, formula II, and Prime Reef Flakes after work yesterday. I was so excited to see that my perc out of my hand as soon as I put my fingers in the tank. He/she also seems to be hosting some of my frogspawn and torch corals, it looks so cool. I think I need to get him/her a buddy. It is about 2.5" long, so should I get one that is significantly smaller or the same size??? I just want it to have a friend other than the watchman goby I have. Thanks to everyone for chiming in.

    Heh, I finally got my girlfriend to go to a fish store with me and she made me buy a percula pair. My tank is not ready yet so Felipe is holding them for me, he put them in a side tank and told me to take as long as I need. My girlfriend wanted them because one of them looked just like a movie star (can you guess who). It has bright bright orange and very little of the black, the other larger one (female?) had some black on the side.

    I have always liked clowns too, very active and not shy at all. I had one in Hawaii that only ate flake food and did ok, when I left I returned it to a fish store. The one I had when I lived in San Diego ate flake food also and avoided the anenome I put in its tank, I returned both to the local fish store when I moved.

    Flake and Nori. Mostly Nori. My Yellow Tang and Red-and-Blue-dot Goby love it too.
    135 gallon reef and 29 gallon mini-reef.
