Does anyone's clown ALWAYS attack them?!
I have a 4 1/2 year old Perculla (sp?) clown that I origionally got for my dorm room in college for my nano cube- then about a year later I set up a 46 gal and he has called it home ever since. WELL whenever I try to do a water change/clean/grab anything in the tank he will immediately come attack my arm. He has drawn blood a couple of times! One of the last times I just got so mad I scooped him up and popped him in a tupperware container to chill for like 10 min while I rearranged corals! Now we just have both of us for a water change- one person to clean while the other holds in a net to deter him from nipping.
Anyone else have a problem like this? How did you fix it/ deal with it? It is if you put your hand in ANYWHERE, not any spicific area at all :shock: God he is such a weirdo! But he is beautiful and the prettiest color orange I have ever seen so there is no way I would ever get rid of him! :)
