Hello Reefers-
I recently purchased a yellow clown goby from my LFS. Initially, I loved this fish.. had a great personality, loved hosting my euphyllia, and got a long with all my other fish
The owner told me they were completely reef safe. WRONG.. After about a week, not only was it perching all over my acros and causing them to retract their polyps, but it would constantly nip at coral tissue and polyps.
I was finally able to set up a trap and net him. Took me forever -_-
It is not a rumor; Clown gobies DO eat SPS.
