not that i know of .. but th bta has moved somewhat in location maybe some sort of territory thing ?
My strategy it to always keep one eye on the clown and never get my hands too close to the BTA!

Has the aggression died down any yet?
hey yeh man it has .. wierd ey but she hasnt bitten me since my last post now ... makes me happy ; )
I'm glad you clown has laid off, but it always surprises me when peeps wonder why they get bitten by their clownfish after they get a bit of age and size on them...they are, after all, nothing but nasty little damsels in fancy pajamas.
I've kept two clowns (at the insistence of the kids), different species, several years apart, and they were both nasty. I got rid of them both for that very reason, and will never keep one again. I'll stick with all of my venomous fish, thank you very much (at least they don't bite).

To be honest, the fish we keep are about a docile and tame as they come as long as you don't fit into their mouth (true of most fish) or accidentally put your hand on them.
They really don't deserve to be lumped into the "aggressive fish" category.
Could you do this with a nasty fish?

Who has to be aggressive when they are poison?

my ocellaris clown fish has jumped out of the water trying to attack me. but my anemone got sucked into one of my powerheads and died now she is as nice as can be. im waiting for my Rose Bubble tip to split in my 90 so i can give them another anemone. I always worn heavy duty gloved when i had to put my hands in there.
