Does hippo tang eat clownfish?

[karlyhui]

Hi

I have a pair of maroon clown fish, the male is only 1 inch or so.

I am not sure if I can put in a 7 inch hippo tang in the tank with it.

Will it eat it?




Thanks

no tangs eat algae... not clownfish. I would be more worried about the maroon clowns harassing the tang.

I agree with wilawalo. Maroons are ornery.

why not get a smaller hippo if you're worried.. hippo's eat both veggies and meat.I do agree with the above posts but The Hippo I had developed a taste for my brain coral,so he had to go.Your clown should be in no danger. my 2 cents are spent!

No way will a hippo try and eat a clownfish.
