| − | + | |tank_compatibility=:This fish is '''not''' reef-compatible as it will see smaller fish and invertebrates as food. They will not tolerate other Groupers and should only be kept with robust fast-swimming tank mates (so they are not out-competed to food by the Grouper) such as some [[:Category:Tangs|Tangs]], [[:Category:Angelfish (Saltwater)|Angelfish]], [[:Category:Wrasse|Wrasses]] and [[:Category:Triggerfish|Triggerfish]]. | |
| − | + | |diet=:This fish has a huge appetite and will eat and eat if given the opportunity to. They prefer a variety of meaty seafood such as shrimp, mussels, cockles, fish fillets, clams and scallops. You can add vitamins and highly unsaturated fatty acids to their diet by soaking freeze-dried krill with supplements such as [[Zoe]] and [[Selcon]]. They should '''not''' be fed [[feeder fish]]. | |
