    Love the look of the green haddonis but pretty sure it would eat all my fish. Lol

    Have a 125gal so plenty of space for a while as it grows.

    I think ALL carpet anenomes are aggressive and cosndiering dangerosu to fish even hosting clowns.

    maxi-mini carpet :) but to answer your question, no, they're all pretty potent, and can even eat their clowns.

    Hmm. So how do people keep them in reefs? Just hope the fish know enough to not get stung/eaten? Lol my clowns love hosting my huge rbta. But really love the green hadonis.

    Ive seen videos where a large power blue tang accidently brushes up agaisnt it and its all over. They are kept with caution, well fed to minimize risk, and a lot of prayers they dont touch your achilles tang lol
