The Guardians of the Zoo's
When my clown isn't guarding my zoa garden






My Firefish does






They must have buried some treasure under there or something

Mine will fiercely defend his zoanthid bed from everyone - including myself - when cleaning the glass. He knows that the vulnerable soft parts are between the fingers. He's got quite a bite.

You did? I didn't think the pic was THAT good, but let me know if you'd like a larger version then.

I would, but the shipping would be a killer.

As a substitute, I offer you the larger version of the picture:

Hehe, a guard frog... One would think his color alone would keep away predators!

Heres mine guarding his spot. I had to end up grounding him to the frag tank though since after 2 years he beat the living daylights out of my coral beauty. He was in the frag tank for about 2 months so I took him out and put him back in the display today only to turn around and put him back in the frag tank. He went after the coral beauty within seconds of going back in the display tank. I guess he is now grounded for life
