Polymnus stressing gigantea

[beuchat]

Hi,

My gigantea keeps inflating and deflating twice per day. It is hosting two polymnus and I can feel they are very agressive with the anemone, even I have seen one of them going into the mouth of a s. hadonni in the same tank.

Is it possible that the a. polymnus are stressing the anemone (it is in the tank 10 days ago). I am thinking in building a protective net over the gigantea

Thanks.

I would do what you can to keep them away from it. From remembering your other threads I don't feel that the clowns are the root cause, but they sure aren't helping things.

Yes, I think so. I will protect the gigantea.

I would temporarily move the clowns if you can. Gigantea's are hard enough to keep and with how rough saddle clowns are you don't need any more stress on the anemone
