    As follows:
    1 Blue Regal, 2"
    1 Black Damsel, 1", aggressive
    Another type of damsel, proven aggressive
    2 Green Chromis, 1 1/2", curious
    1 Diamond Spot Goby
    1 Lawnmower Blenny
    1pr Percula Clowns
    1 Green Bar Goby, miniscule
    1 Anemone, Huge
    1 Bubble tip anemone, small
    Pink hammer Euphylia
    Grape Euphylia
    Rock Boring Urchin
    Tuxedo Urchin
    Cleaner Shrimp
    TONS of Bristle worms
    Snails
    Blue-Leg Hermits

    Ok, I know what you're gonna say, but I watched those two damsels and the sailfin...the damsels would flair and swim with him, but the sailfin was having NONE of their...crud! He acted like he didn't care about them at all, and pretty quick, they left the sailfin alone too. The Regal hid, the cleaner did...shrimp stuff. The chromis were curious, but not threatening, etc. No big deal, I thought.

    I would be completely amazed if I had a pistol or mantis in that tank. Shocked would be more like it. Oh well, I am just going to have to keep that arrow seperated from my little fishes. And the big anemone is going bye-bye anyway. Thanks for the help, fellas.

    Most "reef safe" crabs can and do catch fish if they're large enough. I had
    a healthy flame angel in the claws of my emerald crab one morning. Most
    people I talked to said it was probably already dead when the crab got hold of it. After doing some research, I think it was the crab. BTW, this
    is the same crab I saw eat my entire colony of Zoas. I target feed my emerald now ;)
