    I doubt it. Probably cleaning the dead tissue off the skeleton.

    It was that SPS that Kevin brought. The tissue was definitely not dead, but now there's no tissue left on that frag...

    I guess that is why some folks don't like hermits.

    I still think it died and the hermits were eating it....
    I love sushi! Is that strange?

    Nope, all the other frags are just fine. just a random hermit attack.

    I hope they are not still in the tank, if they did attack one, you are gonna have a problem in the future.

    Re: Hermits with a taste for coral...

    Good thing to keep an I on, I've still got 2 from my original set-up, their kinda part of the program, but sure don't want them munching on my corals.

    I agree with Charlie, take them fishing

    Tanks,

    Yeah, but the whole point of bait is to catch something, look at night clubs, the more people drink the wilder they dance, draws attn. know what I mean
