Will Condy's eat my fish?

[jansreef]

Would like to have a couple of Condy's but someone told me they would grab my fish and eat them, I have 90 gal with about 12 fish, nothing really small. Have 3 bulbs and a long tent. anem that are doing really well, and some other corals, what do you think?

You may regret the condies. They have quite a sting and get pretty big.Besides you really dont want a $5 anemone eating something you paid $$$$ for.

Most open reef fish are pretty savvy about not getting eaten by anems. Dragonets and seahorses are mostly the ones in danger. I have a 40gal with 7 anems including a huge GBTA and a medium condy with 7 fish and I've only lost a mandarin to the GBTA, which was sad as she was really healthy and feeding on everything. But now i only keep midwater fish like wrasses and clowns for that reason
