As title states. I have a nem getting close to my derasa and wondering if I should move one of them. It's a small nem but they don't stay small so I'm trying to be proactive since the clam is doing so well. I know the nems can take out coral but didn't know about clams.

I've had a nem get stuck in a bivalve. Closed up on its tentacle when it got too close. So the danger can go both ways.

Nems can sting anything, will they, not always, can they absolutely. I had one sitting in mushrooms and the shrooms were fine.
 
What will probably happen is you move the clam - and then the anemone will move closer, lol. :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:
I'll move the nem. It's a stray that moved next to some corals and wasn't happy with the way I treated it there and it moved here. I need to let it know who is in charge :winking-face:
