Clownfish burns

This is starting to get out of control. My clowns have started to spawn and laid eggs near the same zoas. Now the clownfish is really getting burned badly. I'm going to post some pictures soon.

Here is the clown and the zoas below it are the ones it lays in. The eggs are behind the blue zoas.

Bonehead fish......the best relationship really is with a nem.....when clowns host in corals one of the two parties involved will usually end up getting hurt....with the possible exception of hairy mushrooms....Ive seen that "relationship" work out in the past.

Yes that fish is really stupid

I found out about the eggs when I put my hand in to grab a frag, I put my hand near the eggs and the damned thing chomped my hand!!
They can bite really hard for their size.

It looks painful but it just keeps going back to lay in the same spot. I don't know what I'm going to do with them.

Wait til she gets bigger!

I meant that comment as a general one about all clowns....I think they are the one fish we keep that is not quite "all there".

Have you tried moving the zoas?.... that might work?
