One of my little hippo tangs is hosting a rather large acro. Should I be worried and move it?

No leave it along. Don't really think it will bother acro.

I have the same thing. I have baby hippos in my tank and they like to wedge them selfs in tight places to feel safe...
They don't do anything to the coral besides make they close up for a little while

Like the others have stated, I don't think it will do any harm. I would love to see a pic of the hippo in the acro. :)

It won't hurt anything, like previously stated when tiny they like to squeeze into tight little spots. When one of mine was small it would sleep under the nem my clowns were sleeping in and would try to follow them around during the day but the clowns wouldn't have it. I was always worried the nem would eat the hippo but somehow it never did.

Hippos do weird things. Mine hides head first and hangs out with my clowns and I even think she thinks she's a clown
