Hello everyone,

I wanted to ask whether it would be save to keep a bubble tip anemone together with small gobys. I read that generally, the sting of a bta isn't strong enough to kill healthy fish, but does this also apply to something as small as neon gobys? Any experiences?

I have orchid dottyback / six line wrasse , and have multiple BTAs and a big tube anemone . Unless the fish is sick / dying they will avoid the anemones

Any way to minimize the risk? I assume erratic pump flow could push a fish into an anemone?
Should I keep lights on slightly at night?
