'nems are just dumb. Dumb dumb dumb but not truly evil. They're far too dumb to be evil. Sixlines on the other hand are way smarter than one might think and yeah ... just evil once they realize what they can get away with.

Sorry about the cleaner. That really does suck, I feel for you.

That sucks Laurie, sorry to hear about the cleaner not surviving. It is truly sad when one of your favorite fish turn on others. I to have been thinking of moving out or parting with mine as I would like to have some other types of wrasse.

if he's got chunk out of his body, I would suspect he went too close to the trigger.

It's sad that some fish have to suffer like that.

Ya the 6-line is bizarre he totally attacked the cleaner wrasse and yet he leaves the little fairy wrasse alone, I don't get it The other fish in there are my king angel 3 triggers and a toby puffer so I don't think he'll try anything with them however I do have a mandarin goby which after hearing what Tony posted I'm a bit concerned now. He's never shown any interest in the mandarin so far but I don't really trust him now.

Still think I might catch him a toss him in the reef but my red corris wrasse (who I can't catch out of the reef tank for the life of me ) kept chasing the 6-line into the overflow so I'm not to sure about that. Of the 6-line is bigger and meaner now so maybe he'll hold his own now.
