    All is good so far....And your question is well founded...not at all rude. However...This is my nursing tank now. Its just a small 10 gallon nano cube and Its mainly used for my fragging and nursing other specimens. Whatever they are....they only seem to pick on the algae and look forward to the shrimp feedings. They havent messed with any of my zoas, mushroooms or anything. They dont mess with the clown which is the only fish in this tank and are actually quite shy and stay in the shadows mostly.

    I only plan to keep em for a bit and see. Was just a curious venture!!! I live close to the coast here and can release them easily if they become troublesome.

    You have heard correctly. Those fish could have picked up a parasite or disease in your tank that none of the local fish have any immunity too.
