Attack of the Clownfish

[Arcticfirefighter]

So my six year old daughter got a lesson in the circle of life this morning. We were watching a Scarlet Hermit come out of its shell and try and get into a slightly larger one. As our unsuspecting hermit was wandering around his new shell, our two Ocellaris Clowns came shooting across the tank and had him for lunch. So started the science lesson on the circle of life. My daughter then proceeded to ground the clownfish for the rest of the weekend..lol
Anyone else ever see a hermit get picked off mid-switch?

Can't say I have.

Me neither, but I’m sure it’s happened. Nature can be cool and cruel at the same time [emoji854]
