Does my clown goby have a death wish?

[jmeltzer]

I noticed the other night that my black clown goby was just hanging out in my anemone, and my clown could not have cared less.

Are clown goby's immune to anemone's stings? Has anyone ever experienced this before?

Thanks,

Jason

Although CG's typically live amongst SPS (namely Acroporas), they will also find other animals (including softoes, LPS and nems) as sutiable resting spots. They are nippers so keep an eye out for damage to the nem. If the nem wanted to eat the CG, it would simply engulf it.

i agree. although one day the anemone may eat it.
