The evil one is gone.

After an hour and removing about 200 lbs of rock. The evil Maroon clown is gone. While I might have 30 to an hour left of replacing rocks and coral, I no longer have to worry about a fish rearranging my corals. I have lost at least 3 acro colonies because of him. By the way Free Maroon clown to a good home with a FOWLER tank.

Is she reef safe ?

Just a maroon clown, so he's is reef safe. The problem I had is whatever area he determines is its territory, it will move rock and corals out of the way when you place them unless they are epoxyed down. The clown just drove me crazy with it. I might not have had the problem if my rock was setup differently, I only had the fish because of my daughter (darn NEMO).

- Is it a gold or white stripe?
- What size it is?
- Is it still male or has it gone to female? (sounds like its a female to me)

And a slightly psycho one at that!!!

Gold Stripes. And I guess about 3 inches. I don't know if it is male or female, but as possesive as it is I might have to lean towards female

I concur with the psycho, it was fine till I started adding corals, but my wife has really been going on about not having corals in the middle of the tank, and he knocked down a new coral that I placed yesterday evening in its area, I kind of snapped. He/She also likes to hit your hand with its tail when you hand is in its area, does not hurt just kind of annoying. The crappy is thing is that it took only 40 minutes to catch him and 3 hours to put the rock back, and it is still not quite right. Well this will motivate me to completely redo my Auqascaping so that I can have more coral placement. Just the slight changes I made allowed me to place corals differently than I have before and since I only have 150 metal halides, I needed to create more areas in the middle of the tank to place some SPS
