Wade Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Do tangs normally nip at those? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FarmerTy Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Just depends I would say. A lot of things like to take a big bite of a giant fleshy polyp. I would say my sailfin nipping it is an anomaly. Its more the dismal survival rate of the elegance coral I would be worried about. I think they are collected from lagoonal settings as they prefer dirty/turbid water and my system cannot replicate that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+etannert Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Yep, anyone who wants one should read up on Elegance Coral disease, there's a lot on Reef Central about it. Also a lot of poor information, but the big threads are pretty accurate it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenver Posted October 10, 2013 Author Share Posted October 10, 2013 I have a Sailfin in my tank, and I have this and other similar corals and he really wouldn't care, I think it's based a lot on the individual fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
