I know...I dont know how I stumbled upon this thread...oh ya. I was excited for my new fish to come, so I wanted to read even more about them. This thread came up, so I reserected it. Heathd is not contributing because he is mad with jealousy.
My little tusk came and ate right out of my hand probably 30 minutes after being introduced to my pred tank (which I am now wanting to upgrade to a 240)
The lion hasnt eaten yet that I have seen...he came in on friday afternoon. Super skinny. I cant believe that I am having issues with getting a lion to feed. We will see. Hopefully he wont be belly up when I go home tonight.
Got some baby feeder mollies...hope that this works for the lion. Just to keep him around until I can get him onto squid/silversides/krill
Sucess! No one cares, but the lion ate yesterday. Didnt get any of the feeders, but finally decided that krill was okay to eat. 
I CARE!!!! lol haven't been on this thread in a while. My lion eats like a beast on silversides, trying hand-feeding. I hold the silversides out of the water and place about half of it in the water. The lion heads towards it, bites and their we go.

Well...he went on a strike after the krill. Two days of not eating. I was like..."We have to try something new."
Market shrimp it was. He loves the stuff...he has eaten to the point of bursting the past two days. Both my new tusk, and the new lion are hand feeding now.
