Hi everyone!

I got a bubble tip anemone few weeks ago; like a week after my yellow clown goby disappeared, I saw it couple times laying down on the anemone. Last weekend my tail spot blenny was gone as well, he was a young one, still kind of small. I couldn't find any death body anywhere. Both were doing well, they were eating well and look happy.

I'm feeding it with frozen mysis shrimps, is not that enoguh? I used to feed on my previous anemones with frozen fish or chopped shrimps, but I was told mysis would be enough.

I took these pics Saturday night, it's mouth was way open.

Yes it can happen. it's mostly sick or injured fish that can't swim out of the anemone's grasp though.
