surviving the Mertens' sting

[alprazo]

I thought this fish may have learned the first time it tried to steal food from my small 5 inch Mertens anemone.



But he tried again today. The anemone completely scaled his reflective blue metallic back. I'm interested to see if it comes back or becomes a scar.

It's got a death wish that's for sure.

Is that a platy?

Sheepshead minnow.

I guess somethings never learn and obviously a reason why certain animals sit at the bottom of the food chain. In hindsight I should have titled the thread differently.
