I'm sure there have been a few other things I've fed Filbert throughout the years... This is pretty a normal diet for him though. He gets scraps from the other fish pretty often between bigger meals (about every other day). His main meaty meals, he gets 2x/week or so.

I still can't figure out why he's not as big as other fahakas. Maybe because of the tank mates? He also doesn't have the clear, distinct maroon striping many other fahakas seem to have. I wonder if he is from a different area than the larger, stripped ones, which tend to be smaller & nicer?
