I took some pictures over the weekend but they were a bit blurry. I will try again tonight and hope to post some pics tomorrow.

Sorry about the pictures. I am terrible with the camera.

The tank just recovered from a little algae bloom so you can see the left overs.

Banded pipe and friends

Dragon Face foraging

Northern Pipe and seahorse (Hard to see them). Sorry!

I keep a pair of banded (D.dactyliophorus),a month or so.
One of them takes Hikari Mysis since day one,but doesn´t take bs.The other one never took mysis,but began taking mid size bs and now is fan of adult bs.None of them take cyclopeeze.
This shows these fish have individual behaviour and we can not make general conclussions.Same happens with mandarins.

UPDATE
The "only bs"one,(suspected the female)began taking mysis!
So it can be a matter of training them,and patience!
I feel more relaxed if they take a varied diet
