Tang picking and eating Zoas

[pkane11384]

Pretty much what the subject says. Has anyone ever seen a Tang go after Zoas? The Yellow Mimic my brother in law has in his tank was picking at and eating Zoas on a couple of frags we picked up today. Is this unusual or commonplace? He is definitely not underfed, we always have a piece of seaweed on a clip for it

Thanks albano. It's my Tang but I have it in his tank. It's a small juvenile in his 55 that he's keeping until I upgrade to something bigger. If he's stressed I will sell him

Yellow mimic is an angelfish and not a true tang. Angelfish are known to pick at coral.
