my LFS had one for a while and said it was one of the easier tilefish to care for. I had a purple one for about 4 months and it used to eat small froozen silversides and would pick at the mysis. But IMO they arent the most attractive fish on the market!

There was an article in RK magazine about tilefishes, Hoplolatilus sp. http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2006-07/hcs3/index.php

why don't you have it any longer, if you don't mind me asking?
