my condy ate my sailfin?! how? why?

[Psyire]

Sorry to hear, that sucks.

Do you have any pictures of this Condy? How big was the Sailfin?

Anenomes can definately eat fish but Carpet's are usually the culprits.

no don't have any pics of either of them, the sailfin was about 2.5'' long, and the anemone stretched out is about 5''. it's ashamed but what can you do

Sometimes even healthy fish can accidentally blunder into anemones if they're not careful - those tentacles are filled with stingers for a reason. I remember a thread on RC where some guy's condy ate his foxface when he was busy transferring stuff between tanks. He even had pictures. Pretty cool but chilling at the same time to see "survival of the fittest" at work before your eyes.

Well, when I first entered into the hobby, I was told condy's ate fish. Has that changed?

My condy ate my dispar anthias last week
