FishFish Aiptasia

Last week I got FileFish, its not eating aiptasia.
Should I get it out of the tank?

thanks

Is it nipping at any corals (flesh of base)? Eating anything?

Give it a chance, it takes a while.
I put one in and it took the filefish a few weeks to a month before the aiptasia started to disappear.

I have had one in my tank over 6 months now and he eats everything I put in the tank to feed the other fish.. But NO he isnt eating aptaisas. Im thinking of netting him and getting him out to make room for a nicer fish..
Good luck.

bigcapct: Can I buy him from you?

Give him some time, especially if he's going after the food you're putting in for your other fish. He might just need to build up his appetite.
