Yea i realize that that was pretty steep, but i wanted them and well, we have all done it. It seems fish stores around here in general are just really expensive.

Um, slightly. I have pepps in my 90 gallon and i have never actually target fed them. You have to be sure to have a regular feeding schedule for them so they dont start munching on your corals.
