Fish and Acan lords

[Atomikk]

Has anyone experienced any fish chomping on their prized acans? Or did you personally see any specific fish dine in?

Just looking for people's experiences with fish and acan lords.

I would imagine all types of angels might enjoy an Acan snack here or there.

Well not my Emperor.. at least not in his juvi form.

My Bi colored Foxface had a tremendous appetite for my Aussie Acans. i couldn't figure out why they were receding..... Untill one night my wife caught the little turd munching on my prize pieces!

 

[bigevill1]

Wow, I would be fashoning a small harpoon.

All most... I banished him to exile in the sump!

I had to get rid of my prized RS Regal Angel after he began nipping at my even more prized Acans and Favias.

lol Its my darn wifes tank... She has a Flame angel, Royal Gramma, 4 Damsels, a Pixy Hawk, 2 GSM Clowns and a Christmas Wrasse in there... All "pretty" but pretty darn aggressive... Its turned into a Softy/Paly tank... I try to keep all I can in there... Most SPS/LPS don't last...

I threaten to boot the fish everytime I reach my hand in there and get bit, but she threatens to have me get rid of all the tanks...

my copperband nipped at some acan feeding tentacles once... but they never receded so it might have been a 1 time thing
