Clams and LPS sweeper tentacles

JIM260 · 01/21/2006, 09:54 AM

Will bubble, anchor, or frogspawn sweeper tentacles have any effect on a 4" Crocea?

yes they would, and the effect won't be good.

Thank you for the input. I have a good spot for an LPS next to my clam but obviously will not place anything there now other than maybe a softy.

I learned this the hard way...put a really killer maxima in the rock between three chalices. Two days later, clam is dead.

Peace,

Chip

Those chalices are really aggressive huh?I just noticed recently,my blue chalice was stinging the underside of a large sps.They have long thin sweepers at night..

I moved it to a different tank.

yup be careful where you put it. We wouldn't want you to lose your clam
