coral beauty and bta

[Jake_07]

Is there any chance that a coral beauty angel could nip at or eat a green bta also i have heaps of sponges in my tank some being realy pretty fluro green will the coral beauty eat these.

I don't know about the sponges but I know the CBA will not mess with the BTA. It might leave the sponges alone if you feed the CBA well.

i dont mind the sponges i just dont want him nipping at my bta or coral

I have had dwarf angelfish pick at weakend anemones, for that metter I have also had one destroyed by a keyhole angel.

I have a CBA she is very well behaved, she doesn't mess with my coral and stays far away from anemones. As long as you didn't get an adult WC coral beauty, you should be fine. If it is a young coral beauty it will be use to eating aquarium foods. Mine eats veggie flakes, nori seaweed, some mysis and she nips algae off the rocks. A lot of people that own a coral beauty have had no trouble with them.

Nem should be fine, but 50/50 on coral nipping.

Mine never touched (or even noticed) my nems. I don't have many corals, but it hasn't touched those either.
