By bother, do you mean "playfully" putting my platinum clownfish head first in its mouth for 20 seconds and then spitting it out? Other than that, the fuzzy is a model citizen. It minds its business and just lounges in the rocks. I do not keep shrimp or small fish, other than the clowns. As the fuzzy grows, I do have plans for the clowns.

In the video, I fed mysis. I feed a wide variety of food from mysis to squid to clams to crab to tilapia to flounder and other seafood. I try to give as much variety as I can.

Cool video. I used to keep 2 dwarf lions in one of my past reef tanks. They are pretty hardy and never seemed to bother any of the other fish.

Thanks!! I have found that fuzzies will act like puppy dogs. It comes up to the front of the tank and wiggle its tail just like my dog.

Thanks! I actually got the platinum for free. I won a contest here on R2R and won a pair of designer clowns.

What! I wish I could win something like that. The lfs is selling a pair for 200ish.
