Trouble In Paradise


The 3 week honeymoon between Spotty, our now 7" Chainlink Moray and the Coral Banded Shrimp is apparently over!
This afternoon, FishGirl noticed the CB climbing the tank wall from its usual place under a rock ledge. Our amusement turned to shock when Spotty made a beeline for the shrimp and attacked!! CB lost a big claw before retreating to the safety of the rocks!
The two have gotten along just fine until now with the CB even attempting to "clean" the eel. Spotty had paid little attention so long as the CB was on the rocks. Yes, Spotty is well fed and had a good meal last night.
This may not work out after all.
Dick

Ruh-roe Dick; I was really hoping it was going to work out and they'd be buds! Now what?
