So I was working on my tank tonight and I decided to move my orange digitata frag. I thought the flat second level of the rock my BTA has the first level of would make a nice display platform. I finished everything else, moved the frag and went to wash my hands. When I came back the frag was knocked over. I thought that the current might have swirled and knocked it over so I carefully sat it back up making sure that it was stable. No sooner than I had removed my hand my maroon clown hit it with her nose and knocked it all the way to the sand! I put it back where it came from.
territorial behavior. i have a clown that has been trying to push this new rock away from his turf for the last month. he grasp an edge on the rock and flick his tail and beat his fins as hard as he can for minutes on end each day. the rock has not budged an inch, but he keeps on trying.

yep.. when snails, little or big get near my clowns egg clutch, they will literally pick it up and cary it to the other side of the tank and spit it out.. even the little male... its cool to watch..

Yeah, I haven't worked on my tank thread for a while. But after dosing with melafix, a 25% water change and another 10% water change a few days later my tank is looking good and my firefish's fins are almost back to normal.
great news! glad we made it though the treatment with my bits still intact, & the livestock of your tank in better form!
u post a pic of that "raised bud" u saw on the coral?
