Default I am now 100% clownfish free

I had one that went totally beserk......tore up a nice yellow
toadstool leather, ripped up and shreded over 2 dozen shrooms,
andliterally battered my nice big stand of pulzing zenia to a mushy
pulp. Also went crazy in my basketball size tubipora Musica and I have
hundreds of broken off polyps allover my tanks bottom.
He also liked to wallow around the sand especially around any corals
etc that were growing out of the sand bed itself. I just got tired of
having to always redo the corals and clean off the sand he was always
stirring up.

My other tanks the clows have always battered frogspawn and torch
corals as well as my shrooms but not as bad as the other clown did.
All were common percula clowns. So out they went.....I posted about
them on another web based forum and there were all adopted by a few
folks in the area almost imediately.

The one that always did the most damage and destruction must have just
snapped out. All other fish in the tanks are perfectly normal,
probably more relaxed now since the trouble makers have been removed.

I forgot more about ponds and koi than I'll ever know!
