I wouldn't worry Paul, they love to move around and often go into the shadows.

Here is a newer pic of mine. My only complaint is it killed one of my clowns. Though they are small...they are lethal.

Thank you, I have built it up over the last couple months. They frag well as long as you get the mouth. Now I am just letting them heal and grow before I try to trade them.

Beautiful nems. A couple of months ago I had a couple fish disappear...it didn't occur to me until reading the last few posts that it could have been my nems.
The clown goby makes sense but how do they catch the bigger fish...like the anthias?

Mine caught one of my Lyretail Anthias and one of my Clown Gobies. I wish I would have gotten pic's of the Anthias but I was too bummed and didn't think of it.

I would be most concerned if there are fish like blennies or gobies that like to perch on rocks. If you feed the nem...make sure to feed it after everyone has full bellies. I made the mistake of feeding the nem first and a hungry clown shot in for a free meal and got stuck for a couple seconds. He got away that time and had a bunch of little black sting marks on his side. Thought he learned his lesson but next time he didnt get away.

Man, I wasn't aware that these guys will eat fish, I'm so glad that I didn't pick one up from Divers Den a while ago. Had one in my cart and everything. :)

Regardless, I love the colors that these guys show, some of them are amazing to look at.

I just got a few new ones. They haven't opened up fully yet but I couldn't help myself with the camera. I'll take more later when they settle in a bit.

20 minutes after putting my Maxi in the tank it moved in between two rocks and it hasn't come out since. Is there any tricks on getting these guys to move?
