Just learnt a valuable lesson.

I only had one fish in my tank and that was a Butterfly Kleini. I was warned by Ben it might be trouble but thought it was worth a try.
Yesterday i noticed he took a liking to my new elegance coral i got the day before. In that time he's torn it apart and it's now half the size it was.
I had to take my tank apart just to get the little son of a *$&#. Finally got him and took him to the LFS. I learnt a valuable lesson, make sure your fish are reef freindly and compatible with each other. If not getting them out will be a nightmare as there are so many hiding spots and I swear this butterfly was the smartest fish i've ever had. The sec the net went anywhere near the tank he took of and hid.
Bright side is that I couldn't figure out how I had the tank arranged originally so had to do it all again. I think it looks nicer now well I think so and nobody is going to tell me otherwise ok :evil:

It actually looks much nice mate!! thumbs up!


get some ananomies and you will have teh same problem , especially if they take a likeing to a hidey spot out of few.

Your LFS should have told you that most Butterflies and Angels nibble on corals.
Keep your chin up! :)

It's impossible to become a good fish keeper without making mistakes every now and again. Sorry about the problems but you live and learn.

No real harm done, next time i'll listen when given advise. The tank looks better now so that's a possitive.
Hopefully my elegance will come back, if not I'll purchase another one as they are quite attractive.
