Pom Pom Crabs have mini nems attached to there "arms"..

GSP, I've never seen a pom pom attack a fish, in my experience they have been quite timid and if anything I rarely saw mine. But they are a crab, so I guess anything is possible..

quoted from Live Aquaria:

The Pom Pom Crab is an interesting addition to an aquarium with its anemones in each hand. It raises these anemones at would be predators and aids in cleaning the aquarium of any left over food and detritus. Caution should be used when adding this crab to a reef aquarium as the anemones could sting sessile invertebrates and corals. The damage that could potentially be caused by these tiny anemones that come on each claw would be minimal due to their very tiny size.
