Flower Nem eating SPS.

Woke up this morning and always check my tank and instantly noticed my green slimmer missing. The sps finally started to take off and started noticing growth almost every day. :(.

Guess where it fell into,
my flower nem. Hah. It had the whole thing in its mouth them started closing on it. Thought it was a goner. It opened back up and started trying to spit it out.
I ended up grabbing it with some tweezers. So far they are both alive. Polyps kinda out on the slimmer.

Most likely the flower nem was not trying to eat the frag. These nems can close up quickly in defense so maybe you were witnessing the tail end of this process and the nem was trying to get rid of the invader. (Maybe he tasted it first though. ;))
