Green Carpet Anemone eats fish???

[nycfish]

I didn't think about it until I talked to the other member here earlier, I got 2 fishes disappear in my tank for no reason. Do you think my Green Carpet Anemone ate them? Or does it even eat/kill fish besides Clown Fish?

Carpets can and will kill many fish. Its sting is quite potent. If they didn't jump into an overflow or wind up on the floor then they are probably being digested by your carpet....

I "think" the carpet ate my 2" salfin tang, and the 2" coral beauty.

All anemones eat fish and inverts. It is just their nature. Carpets have a very potent sting and get extremely large. Many a fish has tried but few have escaped

RBTA killed my mandarin, it just comes with the territory...Clowns loveeee them tho

 

[pmui]

clowns can still be eaten by an anemone.
