Melanie’s eat bumblebees?

[SaracensRugby]

I need to order about 50 bumblebees to get on my vermetids. But I have a yellow Coris and melanarus, and wondering if I am just giving these two some
Nice food to eat. Am I correct in assuming that my melanarus will eat my bumblebees over time?

I am almost certain melanurus will eat any motile invert they can fit in their mouths.

Darn. Figured as much. Donating him some food. Will have to try a different mode, like coral snow, to rid these things.

My yellow wrasse eats my inverts for sure.

Great. My wrasse combo will be getting some nice food here soon, hopefully the bumblebees last long enough to put a dent in the vermatids. This hobby, if it isn't one pest its another:). I would take my wrasses out for a few weeks, if my tank wasn't so big.

Thanks for the confirmation.
