JamesL Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 But seriously, I feel your pain. My Pakistan Butterfly started eating everything in the tank. I end up netting him after destroying half my rockwork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Hydro Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 I just got rid of a fox face that after a year started eating acans, sps, and my open brains. I had to order my fish trap and it took weeks to get it. By then head had eaten one head of my rainbow acans and about 10 heads of others that I had. He also kept nipping at zoas so they started not opening and then dying off. I hated that fish by the time I got him out. I have a trap but I'm using it to catch a couple of other fish.

(for now) lol I have an aptasia eating copperbanded butterfly you can have if you want to catch him. Once he is finished with your aptasia he will pick on your acans and steals mysis from lps. Beautiful fish, come and get him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
