Knew someone who once had one in a reef who said it was not a problem.

Does anyone else have similar experience? What coral should I be worried about - have sps, lps, bubbles, zoos and clams.

Just recently saw an article that said they've had success with majestic taking care of majano - I'd like to get rid of my majano problem but don't want to replace with another major problem.

appreciate any thoughts....thanks

My Majestic angel shows no interest in any coral or clam. Eats assorted frozen foods and Nori sheets.

I am getting rid of mine after 4 years. Slowly he has started picking on things (some sps tips, zoas, others). He's killed a few clams too. Either way though, I dont regret getting him. Its worth the risk, just know that you might eventually have some problems...

so far sounds like a reasonable addition.....any thoughts as to these guys and a possible taste for majano?

In my opinion, anything that is going to eat mojano will also bother zoanthids. The two are just so similar and fish generally arent that picky.

well I sure hope it's that simple....I only have a few zoos and many, many majano....might be a reasonable trade off. I can remove as many of the zoos as I can and place in a frag tank.

unfortunately the majestic that I was to pick up, died. The article I read said the same experience with a double saddle butterfly was possible. Next to the tank that the majestic was to be in was this butterfly, so decided to give it a try.

I'm really hoping this works!
