I recently (~ 2 weeks ago) added an ~ 15 inch red haddoni to one of my 2 DTs. This is a very healthy specimen that I observed at the LFS for 6 weeks before buying and he was placed into a well eatablished tank. Unfortunately my 8" Emperator (which is the show fish in that tank and needs to stay) has slowly and consistently been picking off tentacles. The nem now has some enlarging bald patches. Obviously, I do not want either animal hurt and am in need of advice. Am trying to decide whether to:
1) Wait it out
2) Add a pair of compatable clowns who may then protect it
3) Try to free his foot and move him to the other DT (no angels/ tangs only) or a 220 grow-out in the garage (kole tang and scribbled rabbit only)
4) Cover him with a vented clear plastic cover for a bit (with or without a new clown pair) to keep the angel at bay
Advice?
