cute! Just watch the tissue. I recently moved my maroons to my pod where I have my plate. They have decided they like it better than the xenia they were hosting and the plate had bald spots for a few days. He seems to be adjusting to them bothering him now and the spots have disappeared. I thought I was gonna have to move someone but it worked out.

I wouldn't let any clowns do that to my brain. Just cause I've seen what a clown can do do a coral.

I had a very healthy Tongue Coral die because of clowns living in it.

yep, cant keep em from doing what comes natural. I did monitor it tho and if it got worse they would have been seperated. In my experience the coral will adapt and ignore the fish unless the fish is unusually rubby. I don't think that's a word but you get the point.

Yes they can be persistent!
My clown used to dive bomb into and all around my gonipora until it found its anemone.
