It does suck. The nem rejected a silverside that morning. Just one of those days.

Sorry for your loss and this hijack. But i've had an anemone for well over 10 years and have never once fed it. They dont need to be fed.

I learned from a wise man, fish cost $5 and coral costs $10.

Sucks about the loss, My anemone ate my purple firefish, I was ready to sell the anemone. But then again.. the fish only cost $5, so I should get another :P

Sorry to hear.

Are these things really that great at catching fish (BTAs) or is it more likely the fish was already heading south and stumbled into it?

Had my own taste of death yesterday. Lost my last chromis (he and the other had been looking like frail old men for half a year. First his buddy proved I needed gutterguard on my overflow and the other really looked terrible all alone). I can't have a chromisless tank so I'm going to fix that this weekend.

I have a feeling that the lineatus was chased by the labout wrasse as they still were not getting along.

I would have fed all my chromis to the nem if it ment saving the wrasse
