Daily Video Bonus: I managed to keep an Idol for over a year in my 180 gallon. He did great, ate, seemed happy and healthy. Then one day I looked in the tang and he had died. No warning signs at all. I'd love to figure out what I did wrong and try again once we know move about these guys. Great video.

This is one fish I would love to have but I don't think would ever be willing to try.

Definitely a cool fish but not for me, too many delicious snacks in my tanks.

Are they selective on the kind of sponge they eat? Definitely a dream fish but I don't know if my 180 g is big enough for one..

They say 400 gallon water change like it's nothing I use there same idea of removing water for water change for each of my aquarium and doing each at the same time per test

Very cool to learn about the efforts to “aquaculture” the Moorish idol

Such a cool fish! I think this video also brings up a decent point though. Most sellers don't take the time to educate purchases on the needs of a fish. I understand we as owners need to do research before buying anything - especially living things - but I've seen too many times where Petco or PetSmart will sell a customer an Oscar and a 10 gallon tank without even blinking.

Thanks for taking the time to explain some of the extensive care requirements of these!
