Just a quick update. The Idol is alive and well! It isn't getting punked by anyone and practically eats everything I throw in the tank. It absolutely loves clam in a half shell, but it'll eat pellets aggressively and other frozen food. Still crossing my fingers though! I know how unpredictable these guys can be.

Did you ask Willy the origin of the Morish idol?

Have seen mine just pick at algae or pods of a rock in qt and off the glass bottom....So far have tried pellets, nori and flakes and it swims to it fast as if interested and hungry but then says "nah, not what i was hoping for" so going to get some live brine after work.

You'll get it eating soon enough. I had really good luck with clam on a half shell with mine.

Bump! My Idol is doing good so far. It eats anything like it's been doing for a while. I'm going on the over the six week mark with this guy. Keeping my fingers crossed.
[MENTION=6904]Zoarder[/MENTION] and [MENTION=2928]Tangwich[/MENTION] -- Where are your updates??

Great to hear [MENTION=3768]Confuse[/MENTION]. So I finally got a chance to check out [MENTION=6560]oceanmarine[/MENTION] new shop on sunday and it's just as nice if not nicer than their last location in glendora. Willie and Sonia run a clean shop I told them how noah and your moorish idols are still doing great. They also had a nice small purple tang in qt along with a few other fish.
