which fish you have that makes you the most nervous?

I have a blue throat trigger I bought thursday last week that hasn't eaten yet. He samples nori, flake, and frozen, but then spits it all out.

how big is he? have you tried NLS 1mm pellets?

i have a ~3.5" bluejaw trigger thats been in hypo(1.008-.009) for over 3 weeks now. he eats like a pig. i feed him mostly NLS pellets 3x/day.

mine was feeding off pellets the day i brought him home.

He ate for the first time today. I was PM'd about raw shrimp from the market and he was hammering the bites I threw in. He also ate a decent chunk of nori. I feed hikari s pellets currently. He sampled one a couple of days ago but spit it out. I feed a mix of pellets, nori, and frozen all at the same time so I am hoping he learns it's all food rather quickly.
 
The multibar angel that just hit the six month mark. Fat and sassy, but apparently they find excuses to fade out...

And the bicolor anthias that is currently the 800lb gorilla that keeps the peace, but wondering if he'll become the godzilla that eliminates his tankmates.
 
My OSFF pair. I'm constantly watching them closely to make sure they are eating and checking their bellies for fullness. My Garden Eels, the same thing, just want to make sure they are eating. I'm hoping that after a few months I'll have more confidence.
 
My multicolor angel. I had one in the past who didn't do well and have never had success keeping dwarf angels. This one was healthy when I got him and is doing great after 1 month.
 
Was nervous about transferring my clownfish pair from my 37g tank to my new 180g a few days ago. Today they're out of hiding and eating well, so I'm now relieved :)
 
my copperband butterfly fish makes me the most nervous. because since i introduced him to my tank he has not eaten anything. and i added the fish to my tank about a month ago. tried every food and he jsut does not eat anything. don't know how he is still alive. he does pick at the live rock all day
 
I've got two that make me nervous. My Midas blenny and my porcupine puffer. The blenny I'm worried isnt eating enough and sometimes turns his nose up to food when he has barely eaten. The puffer I'm worried about because she's been through so much already: ich, lockjaw, popeye, and then ich a few more times. Now she's doing great in my 180, but gets special treatment and is handfed a select diet to make sure no other illness arises. We got her when she was too young in my opinion and the store she came from didn't seem the best. She was more of a rescue buy, but I'm glad we got her.
