My Picasso feeding her nem

I was bored and playing w/ my new gopro on my tank last night.
It's a pretty extreme fish eye lens, so it's kinda goofy, but it does give a glimpse of my tank, but more importantly to me I caught my female feeding her nem.
She rarely leaves her nem, but lately I've been feeding a local reefers mix of food, and sometimes a good chunk of scallop or something dumps in, and she will actually travel the tank to get it and come back to her nem and spit it in.
Happens here at 15 seconds in, thought it was pretty cool, and worthy of sharing.

I was spot feeding scallop before, so she had no reason to do this before.
I've seen her grab things that pass that she doesn't want to eat herself and push them in, things like nori that didn't get eaten, shrimp moltings and such.
Just recently I started using this new food, and bigger free floating chunks have been blown about, and she'll go to the other end of the tank to get them when she sees it, which is fairly new for her,and cool because it's the only time she leaves her nem.
