Ok so got home from work and i found my Regal angel dead. It was alive earlier before i left. Then i see all my clams closed up. This Regal angel never touched the clams. So i was thinking well maybe it decided too and was killed in the process somehow. Then out of nowhere i see my cleaner wrasse coming over and aggresively picking the clams. I was like "WHat!" So i took him out and he's in quarantine now. I think he killed the Regal too. The clams were not dying or anything either. The wrasse just decided to go nuts out of the blue.

The exact same thing happened to me. I had this great cleaner wrasse who was a model citizen and then I went on vacation for a week. When I came back, my clam was closed and I saw my cleaner munching away at it. He just snapped one day I guess, I have since removed the fish and the clam is doing fine.

Waxx.

painstakingly. I chased him around the tank with 2 nets for about an hour and a half. my shoulders were KILLING me afterwards.
