I just got four frags of various SPS corals. My ignorant gold stripe marron keeps knocking them off and litterally swimming over a foot with this massive frag in its mouth. I am about to reach in and kill that fish.

Been there. I either trade the fish in or just get over it.
It is amazing how I can go from loving a fish to hating it in a split second.

I don't have any other place to put this frag. It is an ORA frag on a wierd plastic pole. It makes it a pain. I finally blocked the frag in with some live rock and he has not been able to do anything yet. i will have to see what happens overnight.

The prob is that that is my favorite fish. he has so much personality (well too much right now), but if he hurts my corals, I am going to send him back to the ocean via the toliet (cause all drains lead to the ocean)
I AM JUST KIDDING.

my computer is going crazy. I just realized that this thread was reposted two other times. I am confused.

I had a six line wrasse that kept attacking my mandarin dragonett.He would allways hide when he saw the net. I left it in the tank, hanging where I could get ahold of it pretty quick. After a couple days he got used to it. when he got close enough, I swooped him up.

my brother cut the top 3 inches off of a soda bottle... fliped it around punched 3 holes in it and zippy tied it back together punched a few holes in it to allow water in and out put a piece of shrimp in it and it caught his damsel, my damsel, my dottyback, and my grub fish.. the dottyback was an accident i wanted the grubfish out, oh he also cut the spout that the cap screws to off, to make the hole bigger.. all fish where caught in less then 3 min! didnt feed them for 2 days then dropped it in under just the actinics... worked like a charm... just make sure you get it out fast before they figure out how to get out.. you only get one shot! but have to tell ya.. its funny watching them find out how to get in.. they smell the food through the holes and go ape ---- over it! then they get in and cant really comprehend how to get out!!!!! good luck and if you need pictures let me know!

Well, I came in to day and my maroon clown had not knocked that coral off overnigh. So he has gotten a reprieve for now. I shall wait and see if he is changed or if he is just waiting for me to turn my back.

Yeah my maroon. He kept head butting my clam. And last week i tried to give her a mate, but she was having none of that! Haad to take out the new one or i am sure she would have killed it. I really felt like taking her out instead, but her and hubby are buddies. She never bites him when he has his hand in the tank, but she will bite me and head butt me constantly even when I am no where near her anenome.
