Follow up to last question. I have a kleins butterfly in the 55, seems small for him but he’s been there for about two months and seems happy. I wasn’t aware that butterflies love to nip at corals. I currently have no corals in the tank, but want to add them soon once the parameters are where I’m comfortable with. What are some corals that would go well in the 55 without the Klein potentially nipping at them. I really like soft corals, but I’m unsure with the butterfly. What are some recommendations?

A dark omen? A sign of distress? Natural but rarely seen behavior? Or did my emerald crab just replace me as man of the house while simultaneously starting a clownfish riot?

My mind is blown.. I don't know what to think. This hobby is full of surprises, though.

Any insight?

Anyone deal with a clownfish bites before?

I got a cleaner shrimp and want my hand cleaned but since I took my glove off the big girl Helga has been very aggressive and even chased my hand away! Haven’t been bit yet, but how bad is the bite?

They never try this with my thick gloves, but as soon as it’s off they try nipping haha
