It is a "dog-eat-dog" world in there. Or, in my case, a "coral-eat-fish" world. I came home from work one day and found this. The tang was about 3-4 inches so it was not a tiny fish. I tried to rescue him, but he was a little soupy when I pulled him out.

Just thought I would share as this was a complete shock.

Crazy! I'm guessing the tang died and floated it's way into the welsos reach.

The tang was still alive and squirming some when I found him. In all fairness, I expect he was probably near death when the Welso grabbed him.
