What do these fish eat? What have people had success in feeding them? Thanks in advance.

Mine ate anything I threw in the tank, and it grew like a weed! They get big fast, and are very active. For any hope of keeping the dorsal filament long, you need a really big tank so the fish doesn't have to swim back and forth very much.

A very easy butterfly fish. They're omnivores, so be sure they (they do great in pairs/groups) get plenty of greens. Like SDguy said, they need plenty of space. Also, avoid fin nippers, like triggers.
