Green bubble tip ate what

Ok so I get home from work today and I'm feeding my fish like everyday and my lemon peeled angel fish was missing. It was swimming around last night just fine. Well I start looking for it and couldn't find it. Well I see my BTA is like 3 times the size I have ever seen it so I check it out and see my 3 and a half inch angle fish's tail is sticking out of it mouth. Now I'm very worried as I just bought a new blue hippo tang and its about the same size just a little smaller. My clown fish feeds it all the time. I'm scared of it now and may have to get rid of him.

 

get rid of him

 

I've lost a copperband butterfly to my stripped carpet anemone along with several others, it is a bummer. sorry about your loss

 

Yeah that really sucks! I loved the look of those anemones but after reading up on them....no thank you!

 

Sorry to hear

 

i can tell you what happened, lemonpeel angels are a natural predator of anemones and often eat them. i had one attack on of my bubbles a while back when i had the two. he must of just underestimated the anemone or something and ended up getting eaten. i wouldnt get rid of him fish know to stay away. the only anemone youll really have a problem with eating fish is a carpet.

 

Well I was fixing to trade him anyway I'm fixing to move up to lps corals and I've heard or read that they also eat them.

 

I'll take him.

Anemones only eat stupid fish...seriously.
