I've noticed one of my 2 A. Ocellaris nipping occasionally at my LPS Fungia plate. I have never read anywhere about any clown nipping at corals. They are well fed and seem happy but it keeps nipping at it occasionally. Is there a way to stop this? or do I need to move the plate into another tank?
 
are they actually damaging it? they sometimes will host fungi plates and this could be that there just putting there face in it and it looks like theyre biting it
 
He seems to be harming it, but I cant be sure. They have their nest dug out in another section of the tank so idk.
