My Haddoni just ate my XXL Scooter Blenny! ARR...

[Reefahholic]

My haddoni just ate the biggest Scotter Blenny I've ever owned. I had the haddoni, 2 scotters, and lawnmower blenny in a 10/g. Fixing to sell this haddoni which is why he's in the 10/g. Came home, and my big fat scooter blenny is missing. there's a top on my tank and it's impossible for him to get sucked up the filter because it's way to small.


That haddoni looks kinda fat...lol:headwally:

I'm gonna have to find me another big scotter. He was almost like a dog. I could hand feed him.

bummer!

Bottom dwelling fish are pretty much an expensive meal waiting to happen. Sorry for your loss. Haddoni are brutal.

Thanks, yeah I can't believe that he could eat a fish of that size!

Here is his Skeleton I found this morning after getting home from work.

It's confirmed...

That sux man. No fish is safe from them really. In the last couple months I lost a 5-6" foxface and a 5" powder blue tang to my red haddoni. So I feel your pain.

PS Is it blue? I'll take it off your hands since I'm left with only Clowns and damsels

Very beautiful anemone. What color is he under normal light?

lost a purple tang to a carpet so yep can feel you pain.

Bummer to hear, but the key element here would be that 10g tank more than the nem itself, not a whole lot of clearance for the little guy, but it always sucks to lose any fish that you've had long term.
Hadonni's do have a rep for eating fish, but I think in many cases it was a sick fish, or like this case where there wasn't much swim room.
Sorry to hear man.
