Thought to share a behavior I've observed in my tank. Doesn't seem to do any harm - I'm curious if anyone has experienced the same.
My nem's would get to be about 5-6 inches in diameter and split into 2 or 4. This would produce one or two unsymmetrical nems'. Subsequently my clownfish (Pink Skunk) would trim the 'miss placed' tentacles to make things right and round(removed from the tank immediately)! The nem didn't look like it cared too much, and the clownfish didn't appear aggressive when she was doing it. If I were a nem I'm fairly certain I'd enjoy being symmetrical.
Anyone observed similar?
General picture provided! One of the clownfish is in the first picture - nicely camo'd (please pardon the slow shutter speed - those are not scratches!).
