It's what they do. Soooo exciting. I have three yellows and two greens in my 90 and actually enjoy wathing them.
 
Oh my gosh.....that's such a cute picture! Looks like he's waiting for someone to bring him a drink and a remote control.
 
:lol: this is what he does all day! i thought there was something wrong with him/her but when its feeding time forget about it!
 
Hehehe yes, he's a bit lazy, but that's what these guys do! I had a little YCG that was lazy until someone came near his fox coral. If he felt his territory was being invaded, he turned into a little pitbull and chased them off - he terrorized a maroon clown that lived in the same tank, he was that ferocious!

Here's Bert - we lost him to a floor surfing incident, I still miss the little guy.

I can imagine. He goes to each coral and just lays on them but I think the monticap is his favorite.
 
Anyone else have a problem feeding these guys? I've had one starve on me a couple of years ago. I picked another one up a few weeks ago, and he eats, but is really picky about the size of the food. It has to be tiny, or it spits it back out and hides....while all the food falls/gets eaten up by others. Feeding time has gotten very frustrating. I have to wait for him to come back out of hiding before I drop some more in, or he gets nothing at all.
 
Wow I have no problems with mine. He takes flakes/cyclopeeze and Mysis. Guess I got lucky huh? he attacks the flakes. He'll grab a large flake and hide with it in his mouth kind of funny to see if u ask me.
 
I love those guys, but be careful if you've got small acro colonies. They'll sit in the branches and nip at the polpys. They don't seem to eat them, just irritates them so they don't open. They can be shy so they often starve in tanks with too many other hungry fish. I had one on my first 12 gallon nano-cube that was hilarious. Once I got him eating he became a real chubster.
