[Vincent100]

Hi all
Just wanted to find out if anyone else's regal nips their coral
For the past few days iv wondered why 2 of my acan frags were not opening up right intill tonight
I watched him having a good go at them , I'm now in 2 minds as to weather or not he should move on .............I love my acans :)

Anyone else having this problem ?????????????

Is there any algae on the base of the acans??
Usually they won't bother corals

They are known to like LPS and soft corals. Mine killed a scoly but he's king right now.

It's not common, but they can be nippers.

I'm feeding to the point of messing my tank up and he's still haveing a go
The 2 acans don't look happy , I'm thinking about putting them in the sump but iv other acans in the tank and he might just start on them
Think if he keeps it up he will be looking for a new home , I like him but i like my corals more
