Are haddonis fish eaters?

[d-man]

I have some nice prized fish and have a great spot for a red or blue haddoni but am worried about fish succumbing to them as a meal.
Please post input. Thanks.

100% absolutely yes. Haddonis are the most aggressive of the host anemones. If your fish are your priorities, then haddonis are not for you.

Yes they are, if you are not willing to risk the livestock in the tank do not add.

Yes, however, many people who have a large enough tank keep both.
There are numerous post here about haddoni's eating powder blues and fox face, even their own hosting clowns.
If your tank is large enough and you don't have too many bottom dwelling fish such as mandarins and gobies, you usually can successfully keep both BUT, there is always a risk.

+1. When I had a haddoni, it ate several fish including my male clown. Traded him in and got a magnifica that is doing well and hasn't eaten any of my prized fish.

Mine haven't eat my pair clowns (luckily) . It only ate my multi color that swim right in it. Is just if you want to take a risk or not. I love my red haddon more then my fishes.

D-Man, if you don't want to see your Gem Tang perish, don't get a Haddoni. Go for a Magnifica instead.

I wanted a nice sand bed anemone utc can't be a fish eater, so oh well.
Thanks for the inputs
