SRC Member tuajia Posted August 16, 2015 SRC Member Share Posted August 16, 2015 Just curious, why would the LPS be affected and die from the clownfish hosting? I thought they do this in the wild anyway? Sent from my C6603 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member jughead Posted October 19, 2015 SRC Member Share Posted October 19, 2015 mine hosted on hammer also so far so good saw the clownfish sucking on the tentacles but no damage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Planted Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 had a pair of clownfish that hosted my euphyllias in the past. initially no problem, but after some time, euphyllia tend to close up and not expand. I was told in the past that the clownfish may cause the flesh to cut against the hard skeleton of euphyllia. My euphyllia was expanding and growing (splitting into 2 heads), but when my clown host it, it tends to close up and not open.I'd not risk my euphyllia getting cut by the skeleton.

Guest Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Maybe because my clown is nipping on the hammer ??? punishing the hammer and telling him he is the boss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
