Just sell him somewhere, I'm sure somebody will buy him. LFS might take him and give you something in trade.

Haddoni, right? Those guys are just notorious - not good for a community tank.

However, that doesn't mean that it's a menace to everyone - someone could set up a nice display just for the clowns and nem.

This. They will eat fish: big ones, small ones, makes no difference.

I’ve got a question regarding this , I think anyhow, have a carpet for about a month now , been looking very good, eats shrimp when I target feed. Noticed we had a blue hippo tang missing today during water change. Carpet all contracted under rock he was at. Do you think this means he possibly ate it? Never seen him all scrunched up before.
