The current "best guess" is that they eat sponges.

I like such information. I suppose that you have possibilities for long term success.

sponges eh
I do have various sponges yellow grey black
but they dont seem to be getting smaller (or bigger)
it inverts its stomach on the glass algae sporadically (that is algae that grows on the glass).

I will make it my mission to discover the truth

I just got one yesterday and it crawled all the way across the tank and up the back glass where it has been all day. Has moved only about 6 inches since last night but it does appear to be extending it's stomach on the glass as well. I can watch it move slightly through the back glass. I hope it's eating, if not I might be in some trouble! :eek2: They sure are beautiful though.
