So one of my ocilaris clowns has started to pick at and move corals that are too close to her anemone, wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience?

My female attacked and actually broke off pieces of anacropora. She also kept dislodging it and tossing it to the sand. She stressed it so much the colony began to RTN.

She also isn’t a fan of any frag placed near the nem and will pick at it or move it.

Really a great fish…

If only she could be more like my perc that was totally fine with a hawk perching in it’s toadstool.
 
My pair of clown fishes host mama OG Bound. Stress her out to no end.
 
Eh fair enough, but i would bet there are alot of other fish that we all (probably) love that would bite your hand(puffer fish)
