This is Toby - not only does he eat copepods, but he also eats brine shrimp, mitosis shrimp, and I have seen him munch on squid. He doesn't like flake food though.

Very nice looking fish. Did you train him to eat prepared foods, or did he eat them when you got him?
 
Nope...he nosed around for the first week we got him and then at the end of the week...he was munching away. We've had him for about 2 months now...so I know he's not starving away. My frag tank I've noticed has become a nursery for copepods lately so sometimes what I do is take a turkey baster and suck them off the walls of the tank and relocate them to the 30 gal tank for good old toby to munch away. By the way...I don't name the fish...my wife does.
