Noticed a baby Banggai swimming in my zenia and quickly scooped him into my prop tank, did not see any more till I looked into my overflows and there were 2 more. Is there any way to get more out of the tank before they all become dinner? Some kind of trap, "wild call"(lol), or anything? Or do I just have to wait till they go into the overflows? Also aren't the Banggai mouth brooders? I'm going to investigate this right now. Thanks for any info.! Lee

Hi:
no magical tricks to remove baby banggais. The only thing I can think of is to create a shelter for them, and artifical sea urhcin, and they might hide out in it for protection, besides this they will hide in anything w/ tentecles, like fungia, anemones and your xenia.
yes banggais are mouth brooders and apparently your male was carrying fry and you didn't notice. Did you happen to notice you male banggai not eating for the past 2 weeks? or did you just get the fish?
