flooded the tank with live feeder shrimp but it does not seem interested
for more than 1/2 hour, it stays put like a rock
my greedy lionfish finished all the food
any tips?
thanks

patience... they can go without food for 1-2weeks.
alternately, catch and isolate it, place it together with the feeder shrimps in a holding area.
