Stupid Damsel

[Guest Keyoke]

So, I got a Deepwater Acro from Kenan earlier this week.

 

And I noticed that it's bleaching.. at first I thought, RTA, but after watching the tank this morning for about 3 hours, I noticed the DAMSEL IS EATING IT.

 

Pardon my french but;

 

Mother humping coral eating smug little fat boddied peice of *@. LEAVE MY FLIPPIN CORAL ALONE you little !

 

I'm tearing down the tank this weekend to get that little Mother*%$#@#$.

I'm still on the fishes side, it's cleaning up, not killing it!

... maybe. But this was a good sized frag. I'm down to nubs of flesh left on the thing, and in a matter of a day or so? From a colony the size of a softball?

 

As soon as I put the acro in the tank, the damsel started pecking at it. I'd fed the tank some flake, so I thought maybe some flake was on the acro, and that's what it was going after...

 

But I had the same problem with the Xenia. As soon as I put it in the tank, the damsel started pecking at it.. figured it was benign action.. checking to see if it was edible or not..

 

And I did it again, took some of that same xenia that'd been happily living in my sump and put it back into the display tank, and the darn damsel went to town. 3-4 heads of xenia gone, picked clean from the snail shell it was attached to in a matter of hours...

 

I think that Damsel is an Angel in disguise.

Hey,

I've got two just like that except their colors are not as vivid, maybe because thay are so large now. Or it could be that I don't feed them coral and xenia. :D

You want them, it might calm yours down.

Muwahahahahahahah!

 

I caught 'im! He's gone! muwaahahahahaha!

 

:69:

 

moved the xenia back into the main tank, moved the deepwater bak into the main tank.. no more damsel harrasing my goby, no more damsel picking at everything in the tank, no more damsel leaving his giant green and orange turds everywhere, no more damsel.. no more damsel.. no more damsel!

 

 

hahahahahahahahahah!
