I also can't believe you got a day off. How does one accomplish such a thing? I think you need to share your secret! :P

It appears, (and I hope it stays this way) that the nipping that I observed may have just been some exploratory tastes. I suspect that if the little shite was intent on eating the clam he would be much more relentless in his chomping. Would like to avoid putting a strawberry basket in the tank for obvious reasons. Thanks for the tip though. The bi-color has put a serious doubt in my plans to bring home one of the incredible potters angels that are at the store right now. I have always wanted a potters but they are supposed to be more prone to nip at corals and clams than the other dwarf angels. That coupled with the fact that if I added one, that would make three angels in my tank and that could be asking for trouble. The potters at the store are considerably bigger than the flame and bi-color that I have so I think there would be a big power struggle. But the fact that the potters are bigger may be the reason that adding him may work.....hmmmmmm.

The time off is unexpected and unwanted, being that it is so close to x-mas. It did however allow me to get some of those "I'll do it later" type things that the tank needed done.
