Anyone ever have a clown host a clam before?

I caught one of my clowns lying on top of my big squamosa snoozing away the other day like he was on a hammock in July.

My froggie kicked my galaxea's ***, but the same galaxea colony held its own against a small GBTA until the anemone moved on. Ergo, don't underestimate the 'spawn.

Just like with a closed-loop, it all comes down to planning. These guys all have Tunze streams as part of their setups (including both superfudge and fastfish) - do they look intrusive to you?

I've found that wrasses cannot eliminate pyramidal snails from a tank. This is because the snails are nocturnal whereas wrasses are diurnal (sleep at night like us). So your wrasse is having sweet...

Anybody wanna split a bucket of carbon from bulkreefsupply?
