Anybody have any luck keeping one of these? I would appreciate any advice or tricks.

According to "Marine Fishes" they require a 55gal or larger with lots of LR..."MUST be kept in a tank with LR...' It is reef safe but only has an Aquarium Stability Index of 2 (out of 5). "Although beautiful, this HHawwaiian endemic requires some special care and will starve if not kept in an established reef-type system with productive LR."
