we had the anemone in the laundry sink with a couple fish...we transfered anemone over, then we thought the foxface jumped.. until we looked at the anemone!

we watched the anemone slurp down the whole fish in about 15mins! quite the site!

Thats my old pruple tip Seabae.

Something must have spooked the foxface into the anemone because I never had it eat any of my fish. Expensive meal!

Damn, that's unfortunate. I had a feeling it was a sebae. Nice looking anemone.

Anyone know if there is a chance to save the fish when you see this? Or does the nematocysts of the anenome totaly kill the fish? I thought it was just a paralizer and the fish was still "technically" alive until its in the gut getting digested?
