What should i feed my Racoon Butterfly?

[Jme]

I got him to help with an aipatsia problem i "inherited" from the used set up i bought, but i dont notice him eating any of the mature aiptasia. He is picking off the live rock, but he rarely eats any of the plankton/brine shrimp/blood worms that the damsel and clown devour. I have put red seaweed and dark green lettuce in as well but he doesnt seem to take these either. Is he sustaining himself off the live rock? i really dont want to starve him, but he seems otherwise healthy and active....

Try some mussels or clams.

Have you tried soaking in garlic extreme? That will help with lots of finicky eaters, plus it boosts their immune systems....

I feed mine the following alternating them (using it once every 4th feeding). I feed 1 frozen cube of them every other day:

*Mysis Shrimp
*Brine Shrimp
*Squid
*Krill

I also see him "munching" on the lr. He did not eat for the first three days that I had him. Now he eats like he has never eaten before.
