Hello,

I have 4 Sexies on a 5g tank and I'm planning to move them on a 40g with Lps, few Sps and Shrooms.
Will Sexies bothers any corals?

Thanks!
 
I had some sexy shrimp in an invert tank with LPS and soft corals... never had an issue. They spent most of their time in the rock anemones, but idk if they would be an issue with SPS
 
Mine always seemed to gravitate towards euphyllia even when I had anemones, regardless they never caused any noticeable problems.
 
Mine were picking on my acan and caused some tissue death, but they have stopped now for some reason.
 
Thanks for the input everyone! I might leave the Sexies on the 5g.
 
I have seen them picking at my acan and once a chalice (it had some tissue recession) but I'll be more worried about them being slaughtered by wrasse or other fishes :-/
