Kalk paste and fish

[bluetang]

I covered a nice little piece of aptasia with Kalk Paste. Ive noticed that the paste is now slowly coming off the rock and my fish have decided to give it a taste. Will this harm my fish?

The aptasia shouldn't hurt them as many fish eat aptasia anemones. The Kalk paste on the other hand might.

Sorry, I edited my post. it is the paste that is coming off and that the fish are tasting

Fish taste things much like we feel things with our hands, it is how they explore. I would remove the Kalk paste just to be safe though.
As far as the aptasia is concerned; try a turkey baster filled with boiling water to kill it, it has worked for me with great success.
