Tang nipping on LPS


Recommended Posts

Hi, does anyone had issue with tangs that had been in the tank for a while but suddenly going after LPS? If so, how did you deal with it besides removing the fish?

 

I had a purple tang that I like a lot and it had been specifically going after my two trachyphyllia for a few days now. Tank had a nutrient issue so recently reduced feeding to once every two days so this issue started. Trying to use seaweed to distract it and ensure that it is well fed but does not seem to be working. Appreciate any inputs. Thanks!

Hi bro.
Encountered that with my purple tang last time.
Sad to say I can’t solve it. As a result I had to sold it away and get a new one.
So far still ok and no nipping on my LPS even reduced feeding.
