Almost looks a little perverted. I wonder if it will hurt the ric at all. I got a bunch of floater I wouldnt mind getting sucked up by my rics tho. lol

That's pretty crazy! Never thought a shroom would eat a zoanthid. Awesome pics as well to document the carnage.

I had an acan eat a ricordea and a favia eat a bta.

[Zoanthkid]

Lol what kind of zoa was it? how expensive was the snack?

 

[intricate_reefer]

That's crazy man. Never seen that. One of my yumas were trying to eat one of my acans today. Or maybe it was other way around.

Let the coral wars begin lol.

Yep, it was a floater! I had a few more floating around but I can't find them anymore, apparently my ricordias ate them all:tongue:

It does look really weird....by the way, the ricordia is looking super healthy/bigger. I know, I should have recorded this, next time it happens I will do it.

Gracias!! I did called a friend and he told me the same thing, his acans likes to eat zoas, weird stuff!

HAHAHAh

Incredible pictures! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you!!! Glad you enjoyed them!

ya that was really kool, i hope others make it ok lol

I was expecting the same, but I can't find the other floater, I guess they became ricordia's food:tongue:

Lol what kind of zoa was it? how expensive was the snack?

I really don't know which one... my emerald crabs have been propagating my zoas without management approval LOL I'm almost sure it was a PE type because that colony has many polyps that are MIA

You should have taken a few pics of it. This are "extraordinary events" in our tanks, unusual in nature and infrequent in occurrence.
