Too cool, Sexy shrimp really do well in smaller designated tanks and they are a lot easier to view and keep track of. Have you noticed any coral eating behaviors?

I haven't noticed them eating any corals, but I have seen them stealing food from corals which is pretty normal behavior. The only inhabitants I've had that ate corals were Molly miller blennies and pencil urchins. The pencil mowed down zoas, Xenia, and cespetularia. The blenny had a thing for Acans. Both got turned into sump dwellers.
 
One of my Pimpled red mushrooms and a small green sinulara stalk out of focus.

Added a whitish flower anemone this weekend. Not exactly the most "ultra" colorful anemone but it definitely stands out. Water change is in the forecast.
