Feeding a Redspotted Hawkfish

[cobray]

I just picked up a redspotted hawkfish today for my 110 gal FOWLR. My first fish in there and he seems to be doing just fine! My LFS said that the standard flake food would be fine, and he seems to like it. I'd like to give him somethign else though. Any suggestions? I have some squid cubes.

My fish all seem to like Mysis shrimp

I'll pick some of that up. I fed him about 1/2 of a squid cube last night and he seemed to really like it.

I feed them the flakes every day, but once a week through some misis or brine in there and he goes wild, its really cool to watch

Mine is in the sump (has been for months) and he eats whatever comes his way...and he is doing very well....but was not a model citizen

Yup, just keep offering it different foods, it might not go for it right away, but soon it'll tie you together with food, and soon hopefully will check out anything you put in the tank,,,I think if it gets hungry enuf, it'll try anything you offer. The mysis is a good idea/food to give,,,experiment with the different kinds of frozen cube food, some brands offer a line of a few different kinds of food.
When i had my hawk, it ate just about anything, when it saw the other fish go crazy at feeding time,,,,so it just learned to jump in and go for the food, whatever it was,,,

Good luck!
