Yes they grow fast

That’s awesome to hear!
Try feeding it angel formula, mine loves it and it contains sponge which is important for their nutritional needs.
Nori is also a favorite
Yes, their banner grows like weed. Mine routinely loses a part of it and it grows back just as fast.

You lucked out in getting this decision made FOR you

Thanks!!
Yes I do feed the Angel formula too as I have angels and butterflies in another tank so I just throws cubes into the big Storing food cups I mix up beforehand. As for the nori I have to replace it twice a day, 3 pvcs full of it lol He eats and eats and eats. Just hope he continues to leave my coral alone.

Oh we also have lots of pineapple sponge but I never see him eat it. Do they not like it as much?

@Feet4Fish i think lives over that way, he has a 600-650gal fish only tank. Maybe he would be willing to adopt a few.

Sorry, don’t have any up for adoption. He’s doing more than amazing in our tank but thanks

I can't blame him. I'd rather eat Nori than a sponge, too.

Well I think I probably would to LOL but sponge is what they apparently eat a lot of in the wild and is very healthy for them. Just didn’t know if pineapple sponge was not as good to them as other types of sponge

Happy to see this worked out for you, amazing fish these idols.

 

[TrishK]

Looking back on my post from last year and how little my Idol was when we got him (Gil). He’s huge now and still thriving. I think the immune booster I put in their food has a lot to do with it My Dory is pretty big and was way bigger than him when we got him but look at the size difference now! Glad he was sent to us by mistake and glad he’s made it almost a year now

Glad to see your idol is doing well. I have had one for a few years. They are very hardly once established. I believe most issues people have is due to how they are caught and handled.

This is a really cool story. I loved it. Glad to see he’s doing well to this day.
