hi there bro,

what other fishes do you have in your display? black caps feed readily, if you make the effort to try and target feed them mysid shrimp in the first few days when theyre hiding. possible concerns would be semi-agressive fish such as damsels and clowns. they will definitely not get along with psuedochromis/dottybacks, so note that too.

i have a pair of black caps and a pair of true percs. and only the female clown and male black cap occasionally bicker. more an asserting dominance thing i suspect

cheers,

ian

juz curious, possible to do the target feeding by keeping in a betta box for the 1st few days? Will it stress them?
