Questions about Scoly

[jcs11236]

I have had my scoly for a few weeks now. He is doing well. He had some tissue damage but it seems to be getting better. I have a few questions about these lil guys. Maybe someone could answers for me. First, other than mysis and pellets which I feed him. What else do they eat? I want to find him something meatier/ bigger than mysis. Second, how do scolys grow. Does the tissue and skeleton/ rock grow together? And last but not least. I noticed that my scoly skeleton has lifted in one side/corner. Like a wave. Can't really explain. Is this normal? How does their skeleton bend.

you can try pieces of market shrimp, however the chunks need to be small enough to fit into his mouth.

Does it seem like the scoly is shrinking. If you see more of the skeleton underneath, then maybe it is "not doing well"

pics would be nice...

I feed mine PE mysis every so often... I'm gonna be trying the Fauna Marin LPS food... I think that should be enough... feed them at least once every other week... I know some people feed weekly... for mine, I get to feed them maybe 2-3x/month only... good luck...
