55 gallon sump
2 clown fish
1 bicolor blenny
1 fire fish
2 chromis
100 or so hermits.... blue leg white and sallys
50 or so snails..
1 large emerald crab
1 peppermint shrimp

paramenters are all good..

now to the problem something is taking bites out of the side of my beautifull light blue sandollar monti.. i see no nubliabraches and it is really starting to frustrate me... it heals up almost overnight but until the last couple nights it only took bites or whatever out of the edges last night took a chunk out of the middle... any ideas anyone.. for my blenny really have taken to montis is it even posible... i was also blaming the peppermint shrimp for a while.. owe one other thing there is a hairy small unknow crab running around the tank that i have not been able to catch yet almost got him once but he fell back in.. are there crabs that eat montis... coral has been in there for about 3 months no problems and is growing like a weed...
 
no urchins that i know of or that are big enough to do this... also i think it would be hard for anything that doesnt swim seeing as that he is mounted on top of a pedistall... the end of some tonga branch
