So this guy is a beast. He hates it when I touch things in his home. Everytime my hand goes in the tank he comes for me with a vengeance-lol. I often find myself hand battling the dang thing inside my tank while trying to protect the coral I'm attempting to move or frag. He doesn't care about the coral so much as he just don't want me touching the corals so he tries to yank them out of my hand-but that's only after I've tried to fend him off from biting my hand in the same spots.over and over. Check out how many times he bit me yesterday while I was fragging some of my high end zoas for sale.

My Gold Nugget Maroons are the same way.At this point they are small enough not to do any damage YET.I will be checking on gloves to use in the future.
 
I need to get some gloves for sure-lol. He knows exactly where the soft spots are, he always bites in between my fingers and when I offer the palm side of my hand that's when he will try to snatch the coral from me-lol. It's super smart
 
How many do you have?How big are they?
just the 1 clown. honestly even though he seems to get along just fine with the other fish in my tank (so long as they stay away from his nems) i think if i were to try to put another clown in there it would be doomsday for the other clown.
