Can corals sting fish?
Ok, one of my fish was nipping a new frogspawn coral earlier but decided he didnt like it and has now left it alone. Can these corals sting???? I didn't think they could but Im wondering now. Are there certain ones that can besides anemones?

he probbably learned his lesson and wont try tasting that coral again. he should be ok, i would only really worry about the sting if it was a very small fish, or he keeps comming back for more. lets just hope he dosent decide to try again if you get or have an anemone. thier sting can be much more potent and some will grab and devour the fish.
