    Elephant ears can actually produce a chemical that calms down fish (semi-anesthetize them) and trap quite large fish....much larger than a clown. Luckily, most fish know to stay away from them.

    Very strong! When o realized he was missing I tried to pull him out and it was difficult to even get a finger in it. Off to the Lfs you go!

    The blue tang is about 3 inches long and my lone black clown is about 2.5 inches. To give you an idea on size.

    Grrrrh! I just called a Lfs and they said they are doing away with corals so they aren't interested. At another Lfs you have to deal with the owner and he is only there on weekdays and I have to work. What an ultra lame day.
