    Default Green Carpet Anemone - Eating fish

    My Green Carpet Anemone has eaten two star fish, one neon goby, and one Hawaiian puffer fish. I have five small clowns. Should I remove my anemone, and if so how will it affect the clowns.

    Your clowns will be fine. I'd see if you can rehome the anemone. This is par for the course with these organisms.

    Carpets are known to eat other fish lol...

    Your clowns will be fine but if they've started hosting it they'll probably give you a good fight when you go in and try to remove it
    55g Long --> After 18mo of doing well the tank crashed during moving. Most likely cause: Flatworm Die-off... won't start another until after moving... Likely not until late 2013

    Thanks guys. I have a smaller hospital tank, going to move the anemone there first and see if I can find a home for it.
