Not sure, not really planning for the worst, just the best.

You could always send him to me, I already have someone picking at the polyps of my acros. He could eat to his hearts content

Makes me wonder how big a tank one would need fully stocked with corals to make a couple of those beautiful coral eatting butterflys alive without slowly killing off all the corals in the tank

That by far is the most beautiful fish I have ever seen. Good luck!

Well maybe you should have thought about it before you ordered her.
But, lets hope for the best.

I should work if the fish eat frozen food to. The fish looks petty small, he should do just fine. How much do you think he will eat.
I have a juv Emperor and if I feed 2-4 an day the fish dosen't pick at the sps.
I did see him pick at the anemone a couple of times, I think he leard his lesson the hard way.

That matters?

I don't think fish are disposable either, sorry.

ahah I don't think the worst case means flushing it down the toilet... if it starts to cause too much damage I'm sure he'll find a new owner
