    I've been protecting my anemones from my Koralias by wrapping bridal veil netting around my power heads. I've been doing this since my nem last split a few weeks ago. I'm still afraid they may move too close to a power head.

    I happened to look up at my tang and saw my yellow tang struggling next to one of the Koralias. At first I thought his tail was being held by the current. I then realized his scalpel was caught in the netting. I reached in and gently freed him. His skin was a lot rougher than I thought it would be.

    I'm so glad I was home and happened to notice. Now I need to find a new way to protect the nems. Maybe foam.

    I lost a banggi cardinal to a Koralia once. But all my fish are strong and active enough to swim away. I have even seen my solar wrasse hanging out around one waiting for food to be pulled into it.
