My clarkii is a jerk

He is such a pig. When I feed my shrooms he steals the food to take back to the nem. I feed him first hoping he'll be busy eating to notice me feeding the shroom, but as soon as he's done, he takes off with the other food. He'll also try to take the food stright from the turkey baster before i can get it to anything else.
 
No. Yours is a pig. Mine was a jerk. She grabbed a yellow tang by the pectoral fin and dragged the defenseless critter across a 6' tank into her anemone. He lived but she and her mate made their way to the LFS. In retrospect, I should have took the tang back.

Oh man, those guys are sadistic. The nem was probably saying, "feed me flesh master!"
 
Feed the clarkii something to big for it to swallow, it will try spitting it out and eating it over and over again for a good few minutes before it gives up & feeds it to the nem. by that time your corals should have eat their food.
