or the carpet ate it..... i had 200 carpets in a large tank i can assure you they eat fish not just small fish but large ones too , they ate the side of a pink tail trigger who bumped into it, chewed the face off a adult yellow banna wrasse and even ate a clown and lawnmower blenny completely plus NUMEROUS sw mollies i had in with them......carpets and fish are not good together including mini carpets. i now keep the mini carpets all by them selves i thought the same as everyone else that a large fish or fast fish wouldnt get eaten but its not true even the small carpets are as aggressive as the large ones.

i see large fish bump the anemones and the fish always take off so their sting is quite strong and we all know how sticky they are.

like mentioned too chromis kill off other chromis its also proven.

You too, eh? I bought a silver arowana for my son and it lasted ONE NIGHT before a kitten got it. Damn, that was expensive cat food.

Since then, we have covers on all of our tanks, except the Oscars tank. Heh, heh, one brave cat went paw fishing in the Oscar tank and got an Oscar attached to his nose in short order. I really shouldn't laugh, but gawd almighty that was a sight.
