I hand feed him krill once a week, maybe that's the secret to his success...??

That's one I've gone back and forth on many times over the years.
Once they make it past acclimation they are quite hardy and I do feel that target feeding them like you do is a key to success. I think their size also make them a little trickier than other Serpent Stars. The larger size seems to make them more prone to damage which in turn probably makes them more prone to diseases/infections. When I have a few other changes to make I'll change the notes on them.
