I think you should feed him some mixed frozen food like krill,
mysids, etc. Flakes every day might not be giving him all nutrition.

Flake foods are pretty good these days, especially if you mix them up.
Still, they do like the occassional burst of frozen shrimp.

Mike and Pszemol -
I do feed them frozen Marine Cuisine once in a while. Mostly flake
though. Hey Psz - do you actually have baby maroons you've raised?

I've had mine for about 6-7 years. I'd like to get rid of him, actually;
he's VERY territorial :-)

Is this fish alone in the tank? If so, it is not "him", it is "her" :-)
Get her a mate and then, when they start breeding, you will
know what the word "territorial" really means if you put your
hand into the tank while cleaning their tank interior :-)

Beautiful and intelligent fish...
My pair grow up together with other two fish in the 58g
Oceanic tank (royal gramma and hepatus tang). They are
doing just fine, not bothering other fish except the basslet but even that
only if it swims too close to the nest while occupied with eggs.

LOL! Yep, my one maroon is very mean. I don't even like to put my
hands in the tank - he attacks immediately.

I put my large net over the sebae, and he hides under it; only way I can
get my hand in the tank.

Yes, but they are adults now... :-)

I have traded almost all 70 survivers about 1.5" each to the local stores.

Kept the last 4 smallest ones and put them in two separate small tanks.

One pair died after unfortunate feeding with some suspected live brine
shrimp but the other pair is doing well in my second tank (10g only!)
and they now breeding, too. In fact they deposited new eggs yesterday
evening on the rock under a large rose bubble-tip anemone.

So I had the pleasure to observe the full life cycle of these fish, from
tiny,
almost invisible fry, then the funny-swimming larvae and now adults.

That's very impressive! Maybe I should try that in my 20 gallon.

Be prepared for hundreds, thousands of fry and massive amounts
of food like rotifers, later artemia & cyclopeeze. 20 gallons might
cause big water problems later, with growing fish. My 60 grow up
in 30 gallons and I had never-ending problems with water quality...
It is best to prepare several tanks and group fish when they grow
up by size, to keep in one tank fish of similar size. Otherwise they
fight too much. A lot of work for about half a year before they are
big enough to bring them to the fish store or give away to people.
But you can learn a lot and have a lot of fun and satisfaction when
they survive in reasonable quantities... Go for it! :-)
