The pipefish is a fairly recent addition. I haven't been feeding the tank that much but I've noticed that my Carpenter wrasse was getting really fat. I took a closer look and noticed that the pod population is going nuts. I'd seen the pipefish in the LFS for the past two months, they said that they hadn't really been feeding it, but that it just eats pods. So I bought it.

It's doing all right so far. It will it cyclop-eeze but that's about it. Actually, I was hoping that it would explore more of the tank, but it just sits in the front hovering most of the time. It'll occasionally go back in a cave but that's about as far as it goes. Not intimidated by the other fish (the gramma and wrasse go at it every once in a while). It's only been a week, hopefully it'll get a little more active.
