That's a great read that postal linked for you. You should read that from beginning to end. I have a pair of leopard wrasses (M. bipartitus) that have been with me for several months now. Don't get worried if they go in the sand for a few days, they are adjusting to the lighting schedule. DO NOT dig for them if you don't see them.

Mine will take everything now including frozen mysis, brine, squid, krill and also pellets and frozen cyclopeeze. A good food in the beginning if you find them being picky is trying live brine shrimp. I'd also skip the QT for this one particular fish. They consume a lot of pods throughout the day so a good fuge with a pod population is another good idea. Good luck!

I've had a female meleagris for about 5 years. Bought it as a 2" juvenile and kept it in a 10 gallon for the first year. It's about 6" now and eats everything I put in the tank, including Nori. Beautiful fish. Also worth mentioning she cleared my tank of a pyram snail infestation that was killing my clams and snails.
