    I have a very aggressive coral banded that I had to isolate. The plan was to drop him off at the LFS this weekend. Before getting rid of him, does anyone see putting him in the fuge as a negative, are there any positives? I have lots of pods, bristle stars and small bristle worms in the fuge.

    it would probably eat alot of the things you mentioned you have in there, which would probably be detrimental to it in the long term

    I know they eat worms, wasn't sure about pods. sounds like I'll just end up with a fuge containing 1 fat shrimp :) Looks like he's going to the LFS.
